    After upgrading dovecot to v2.4 my virtual user setup was broken. After
    some investigating I sound out that there is a small issue in auth-passwdfile.conf.ext template:

    auth_username_format in userdb section is equal to %u but in v2.4
    the correct variable is %{user}. This leads to following error in logs:

    dovecot[31599]: auth(xxxx@yyy.tld,192.168.1.22,sasl:plain)<Kha0BHo1OsTAqAEW>: Error: user not found from any userdbs
    dovecot[31599]: imap(31645): Error: auth-master: login: request [3785228289]: Login auth request failed: Authenticated user not found from userdb, auth lookup id=3785228289 (auth connected 0 msecs ago, request took 0 msecs, client-pid=31644 client-id=1)


    Fixed with https://salsa.debian.org/debian/dovecot/-/commit/e6e5ef799d96fe32c665a1896c282aad400fcdf7

    I don't think this rises to the level of justifying an upload targeting
    trixie on its own, but if anything else comes up to warrant a -5 during
    the freeze then this will be included.

    noah
