I just remembered that there's an LDAP_DEREF setting in authldaprc that blabbers something about aliases. This is something completely different.

I plead guilty, I hadn't checked it. But it's not that. It was set 'never' before the upgrade and it was still 'never' after. Changing it to all other possible values doesn't help. With

objectClass: top objectClass: CourierMailAlias objectClass: account mail: dumm@provocation.net maildrop: dumm@provocation.net uid: dummy30

objectClass: top objectClass: CourierMailAlias objectClass: account mail: dumm@provocation.net maildrop: ora@provocation.net uid: dummy29

objectClass: top objectClass: CourierMailAccount objectClass: account uid: oracle mail: ora@provocation.net uidNumber: 2018 gidNumber: 2018 homeDirectory: /somewhere userPassword:: [lotsagarbage]

and 'LDAP_DEREF always', sending mail to dumm@provocation.net results in

authdaemond: authldaplib: refuse to authenticate dumm@provocation.net:
uid=0, gid=0 (zero uid or gid not permitted) courieresmtpd:
error,relay=2001:470:1f00:186:211:2fff:fed7:8bf8,from=<ora@provocation.net>,to=<dumm@provocation.net>:
450 Service temporarily unavailable.

I can only guess that on the second pass it looks for uidNumber and gidNumber, assumes 0 when neither is found, and therefore runs against the root issue. openldap is 2.0.27-17, mail to dumm@provocation.net is delivered correctly.

Didn't someone submit a LDAP patch to the list to have courier search for additional aliases!?
