<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Okay heres a weird question is there anyways to
make dovecot run as root ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Heres why:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm currently using XMail email server
(smtp/pop3/virtual accounts). And I love using it. But it really must
run as root. I've tryed all the non-root solutions for it. and really I'd
prefer to have it run as root. And I'd like to really use dovecot as (on server
with xmail). Currently I've got it running with some sendmail server and a few
postfixs But really I'd like to get it working with Xmail. So if anyone has any
Ideas or how to get Dovecot to run as root.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>PS. I know the Idea behind dovecot is security and
how it's coded to be able to run using non-root accont. So please I'm really
only looking for ways to get dove to run as root. And not new ways of
reconfiguring my smtp servers so as they don't need to be run as
root.</FONT></DIV>
