<snip>
# 2.0.rc3 (8e511be90b4b): /opt/dovecot2/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# OS: FreeBSD 8.1-STABLE i386  ufs
auth_debug = yes
auth_socket_path = /opt/dovecot2/var/run/dovecot/auth-userdb
auth_verbose = yes
base_dir = /opt/dovecot2/var/run/dovecot/
dbox_attachment_dir = /var/spool/virtual/%d/%n/dbox/attachments
</snip>

However, I must say my aim was NOT to try out the SIS feature. I just wanted
to test out dbox (before SIS) using this version. When SIS is finally
matured, I will simply update and test it out. Right now I just wanted the
dbox mode whose support is complete and full.

Well, I still get to:

internal error


Should I drop down to RC3 with mdbox? I don't need SIS at this moment in
time, just dbox, be it sdbox or mdbox:)
