Hi

having further investigated the timeouts mentioned in the previous 
thread, I am submitting this patch as a potential solution.

Basically with -A doveadm parameter, the 155 second timeout is applied 
to the whole end to end transaction. With -F parameter the 155 second 
timeout is applied to each single user operation. Changing the logic of 
-A to follow -F looks a bit invasive. So this patch does more or less 
the same thing, i.e. giving each user operation 155 seconds timeout, 
done in a different way. Whenever another username is returned, the 
timeout is reset.

PS I got help from Claude on this.

best regards

John
