[Dovecot] Concerning: in 0.99.10.7 - Maildir: LIST now doesn't skip symlinks

[chris pickert]

TSS/Dovecot:

   I saw the recent change in the ChangeLog about the 'subtraction' of the
listing of symlinks.

The point showed(minus): - Maildir: LIST now doesn't skip symlinks

   Does this truly mean the functionality was removed? I'd tried doing symlink'd
maildirs in 99.10.6 w/ no luck and when I saw this change I hoped this was an
addition, as it would be great in lieu of Dovecot's lack of ACL/Shared folders.

   If it was intented to be ADDED in the recent .7 release, it still doesn't
work. If it was pulled (which is strange becauase my .6 release didn't do it),
why?
Are the .conf directives about it I'm missing by chance? (Didn't notice
anything)

   I'm using Dovecot in combo with horde/imp and it's amazingly faster than
courier-imap or uwash-imap, well done!

   What about the aforementioned ACL/Shared folders? I'm getting into a crux
that I may need it and courier-imap-/-cyrus-imap will do my trick but, dovecot
smokes them on performance! (Especially with horde/imp's preview/info stuff)



   Thanks! -- Chris Pickert
