Hey,
I recently noticed a strange error Message in our "/var/log/mail.log" when searching for a Contact in Roundcube:
May 31 12:50:46 hostname roundcube: <7b0qppp0> PHP Error: LDAP: ldap_list failed for dn=domainName=domain.tld,o=domains,dc=mx,dc=company,dc=tld. Bad search filter (POST /mail/?_task=mail&_action=autocomplete)
Searching for that error brings up several old Forum posts:
https://forum.iredmail.org/topic11503-i … issue.html
https://forum.iredmail.org/topic9520-ir … illog.html
https://forum.iredmail.org/topic12197-i … r-log.html
But there doesn't seem to be a clear cause / solution for these errors.
I turned on the OpenLDAP debug mode to check which ldap search filter it sent:

Running the configured filters via a Terminal works and does return the expected results.
I also compared the default "config.inc.php" with this one https://github.com/iredmail/iRedMail/bl … ok.inc.php and there is no considerable difference between the two.
The completion in Roundcube does seem to work fine. It's just really strange, that this error message gets thrown every time someone triggers a search.
