Which release of Dovecot? When I installed the patch I had to make a small change because the Dovecot interface seemed to have changed. Let's make sure it isn't that before we look further. Looking at the code, I see that indeed, the change was concerned with "service". If you take a look at the code in auths/dovecot.c you will find, around line 189, an fprintf() statement and some comments about how it replaces another one, which I've left as a comment. You might like to try the alternative statement and see if it works for you. Thanks for testing!
