Well, How disapointing!
I respect what you say but disagree with it.
Unixware is not dead and is a very powerfull system. But I don't wan't to
start a war!

Could you tell me how I can have imap-login put the full pathname of
'default' into sun.path as this is the last try for me.

My idea is that dovecot-auth binds <path>/login/default and imap-login
chdir or chroot to <path>/login and connects to default. That might be the
problem.
