[Dovecot] Some people asked me lately about how professional Dovecot is.

I purely love that kind of crap.  As if presentations meant anything, as 
if there aren't all kinds of scholarly work about theoretical perfect 
world algorithms and conceptual systems that will never be implemented 
and are as practical and effective as wings on a pig.  Please.

I'm reminded of the story about how, during the American Civil War, when 
the North had finally, after years of ignominious defeats, gotten a 
general would could fight and win a battle, General Grant.  A fussy old 
lady approached President Lincoln and complained loudly that Grant was a 
drunk.  Lincoln blinked at the woman, then said, "Ma'am, if you'll be so 
kind as to find out what kind of whiskey Grant drinks, I'll send a case 
of it to all the other generals."

Dovecot Works.  That's all anyone needs to know.  Plus it has a towering 
wizard of a developer and an avid, engaged and endlessly helpful community.
