Hi Timo,

I tried out the mariadb.patch you sent. While it fixed the original 
issue, BUT there is a problem with the configuration parameter:

ssl_client_key_file = 
/etc/dovecot/ssl/private/wildcard.idmz.tachtler.net.key.pem

dovecot[9510]: auth: Error: mysql(db.idmz.tachtler.net): Connect failed 
to database (postfixadmin): File 
'/etc/dovecot/ssl/private/wildcard.idmz.tachtler.net.key.pem' not found 
(Errcode: -280287320) - waiting for 1 seconds before retry

5 times inside the log.

However, the file does exist:

# ls -la /etc/dovecot/ssl/private/wildcard.idmz.tachtler.net.key.pem
-r-------- 1 dovecot dovecot 1703 Feb 27 09:55 
/etc/dovecot/ssl/private/wildcard.idmz.tachtler.net.key.pem

I had already set the ownership to root:root, but the key file is still 
not found, even though it's definitely there.

I hope there’s a solution to this problem as well.

Thank you in advance,


Best regards,
Klaus.
