I didnt notice it actually break anything so Im not sure if its worth worrying about - but I thought it worth a mention. Perhaps it is just something peculiar about our setup or what I was doing that caused something (kerberos tickets?) to be excessively large? -- Thanks, Phill Macey (CiSRA IT Services)

I don't think it should.. I got a warning message during the build if I did not. I dont think it built successfully if I did not change it as well. The comment immediately preceding that line of code also talks about keeping the two values in sync. From src/master/master-login-interface.h: /* This should be kept in sync with LOGIN_MAX_INBUF_SIZE. Multiply it by two to make sure there's space to transfer the command tag */ #define MASTER_LOGIN_MAX_DATA_SIZE (8192*2) Out of interest, what sort of stuff gets stored in this buffer? Would it be where dovecot stores a users kerberos tickets? LOGIN_MAX_INBUF_SIZE is just the max. size of data that can be kept in memory that comes from client. The limit you were probably reaching was in AUTHENTICATE command when your client was sending Kerberos response. MASTER_LOGIN_MAX_DATA_SIZE is only about sending data to imap process that was already read from client by imap-login process. There are no Kerberos tickets or anything stored there. Usually it needs only a couple of bytes to transfer the IMAP login command tag. So I've no idea why it would need to be that large with you.

Same here (1.2.3), it's been working fine adding all possible principals to the keytab and setting: auth_gssapi_hostname = $ALL There are all sorts of resolvers out there that seem to mess with principal name selection on the clients all the time.
