[Dovecot] solaris 10 dovecot-1.0.rc29 - building issue

[Jeff A. Earickson]

Hi,

Works great for me; it has for a long time.  My advice: upgrade your
C compiler.  I usually build dovecot with gcc 4.1.1, but it will also
work well with Sun Studio 11.  Sun Studio 11 is free if you have a
Sun support contract/sunsolve login.  See:

http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/downloads/

Dovecot has been pretty bullet-proof for me.
