To get a much simpler example working, I’ve created a very simple ‘empty’ plugin to get the basics works.
https://github.com/st3fan/dovecot-empty-plugin <https://github.com/st3fan/dovecot-empty-plugin>
This compiles, but there is no way I can get it to actually load.
On Ubuntu 12.04.5 I have moved the empty_plugin.so to /usr/lib/dovecot/modules and I have added it to the dovecot configuration as follows:
protocol imap {
mail_plugins = $mail_plugins empty
}
In /etc/dovecot/conf.d/20-imap.conf
No results however.
Should it actually be possible to add a new plugin to an existing install of Dovecot? Or is the plugin list hardcoded or somehow fixed?
