http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/dovecot-1.1.0.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/dovecot-1.1.0.tar.gz.sig Two hours later than promised, I slept longer than intended. :) No changes since v1.1.rc13. Below are the largest changes since v1.0: * After Dovecot v1.1 has modified index or dovecot-uidlist files, they can't be opened anymore with Dovecot versions earlier than v1.0.2. * See doc/wiki/Upgrading.1.1.txt (or for latest changes, http://wiki.dovecot.org/Upgrading/1.1) for list of changes since v1.0 that you should be aware of when upgrading. + IMAP: Added support for UIDPLUS and LIST-EXTENDED extensions. + IMAP SORT: Sort keys are indexed, which makes SORT commands faster. + When saving messages, update cache file immediately with the data that we expect client to fetch later. + NFS caches are are flushed whenever needed. See mail_nfs_storage and mail_nfs_index settings. + Out of order command execution (SEARCH, FETCH, LIST), nonstandard command cancellation (X-CANCEL <tag>) + IMAP: STATUS-IN-LIST draft implementation + Expire plugin can be used to keep track of oldest messages in specific mailboxes. A nightly run can then quickly expunge old messages from the mailboxes that have them. The tracking is done using lib-dict, so you can use either Berkeley DB or SQL database. + Namespaces are supported everywhere now. + Namespaces have new list and subscriptions settings. + Full text search indexing support with Lucene and Squat backends. + OTP and S/KEY authentication mechanisms (by Andrey Panin). + mbox and Maildir works with both Maildir++ and FS layouts. You can change these by appending :LAYOUT=maildir++ or :LAYOUT=fs to mail_location. + LDAP: Support templates in pass_attrs and user_attrs + Support for listening in multiple IPs/ports. + Quota plugin rewrite: Support for multiple quota roots, warnings, allow giving storage size in bytes or kilo/mega/giga/terabytes, per-mailbox quota rules. + Filesystem quota backend supports inode limits, group quota and RPC quota for NFS. + SEARCH and SORT finally compare non-ASCII characters case-insensitively. We use i;unicode-casemap algorithm. + Config files support splitting values to multiple lines with \

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/rc/dovecot-1.1.rc13.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/rc/dovecot-1.1.rc13.tar.gz.sig There's always time for one more release candidate. :) I was planning on releasing v1.1.0 a couple of minutes before summer solstice (23:59 UTC according to Wikipedia). Maybe it'll bring luck to the release. :) - mbox: Fixed a crash when adding a new X-IMAPbase: header with keywords. - Message parser: Fixed assert-crash if cached MIME structure was broken. - Squat: Potential crashfix with mmap_disable=yes.

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/rc/dovecot-1.1.rc12.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/rc/dovecot-1.1.rc12.tar.gz.sig Sorry, one more RC because of the mbox+quota bug. v1.1.0 still planned for tomorrow. - mbox: Don't give "Can't find next message offset" warnings when plugin (e.g. quota) accesses the message being saved. - deliver: Settings inside protocol imap {} weren't ignored.

v1.1.rc11 released

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/rc/dovecot-1.1.rc11.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/rc/dovecot-1.1.rc11.tar.gz.sig This is the final v1.1 RC. Tomorrow I'll change only the version number, update the documentation and call it v1.1.0. But please test this anyway to make sure I didn't happen to break anything since rc10 :) - dovecot-uidlist is now recreated if it results in file shrinking over 25%. - Some other minor fixes

v1.1.rc10 released
by Timo Sirainen 13 Jun '08

13 Jun '08

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/rc/dovecot-1.1.rc10.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/rc/dovecot-1.1.rc10.tar.gz.sig v1.1.0 will be released on next Friday if nothing horrible happens. * LIST X-STATUS renamed to LIST STATUS and fixed its behavior with LIST-EXTENDED options. It's now compatible with STATUS-IN-LIST draft 00. - Message parsing could have sometimes produced incorrect results, corrupting BODY/BODYSTRUCTURE replies and perhaps others. - SORT: Fixed several bugs - FreeBSD 7.0: Environment clearing wasn't working correctly. This caused "environment corrupted" problems at least with deliver trying to call sendmail and running Dovecot from inetd. - HP-UX: Several fixes to get it to work (by Christian Corti) - Fixes to using expire plugin with SQL dictionary. - dbox fixes

v1.1.rc9 released
by Timo Sirainen 09 Jun '08

09 Jun '08

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/rc/dovecot-1.1.rc9.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/rc/dovecot-1.1.rc9.tar.gz.sig Not many bug reports these last few days, so maybe this release will be a good one. + Maildir: When hardlink-copying a file, copy the W=<vsize> in the filename if it exists in the original filename. - mbox: With rc8 empty lines were inserted in the middle of saved mails' headers. - maildir: Fixed problems with opening newly saved messages which we saw in index file but couldn't see in dovecot-uidlist. Happened only when messages weren't saved via Dovecot (deliver or IMAP). - Several bugfixes to handling sort indexes - deliver: Boolean settings that were supposed to default to "yes" were set to "no" unless explicitly defined in dovecot.conf: dotlock_use_excl, maildir_copy_with_hardlinks, mbox_dirty_syncs, mbox_lazy_writes.

v1.1.rc8 released
by Timo Sirainen 03 Jun '08

03 Jun '08

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/rc/dovecot-1.1.rc8.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/rc/dovecot-1.1.rc8.tar.gz.sig I then decided to add the deliver -c feature to this release. Seems to work in my tests, but who knows if it breaks something.. Although most of the code is called only if -c parameter is given. Anyway we really should have a comprehensive test suite written some day (yes, help is really wanted for this :). So let's hope this is the last RC release. If there aren't any major problems I'll release v1.1.0 in a couple of weeks. I'll also try to merge all my different development trees into a single v1.2 code tree within a few weeks. v1.2.0 will probably be released this summer as well, since it mainly has new features that don't change existing code all that much (CONDSTORE is a bit invasive though). + deliver: Added -c parameter to provide path to delivered mail. This allows maildir to save identical mails to multiple recipients using hard links. - rc6/rc7 broke POP3 with non-Maildir formats - mbox: Saving a message without a body or the end-of-headers line could have caused an assert-crash later. - Several dbox fixes

v1.0.14 released
by Timo Sirainen 02 Jun '08

02 Jun '08

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.0/dovecot-1.0.14.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.0/dovecot-1.0.14.tar.gz.sig Since v1.1.0 release is getting near, this could well be the last v1.0 release. I'll still fix important bugs, but if the bugfix is large or affects only few people it'll probably get fixed only in v1.1 releases. * mbox: Enable mail_privileged_group while creating INBOX. - IMAP: Fixed a rare crash in FETCH BODY/BODYSTRUCTURE - IMAP: If mailbox is selected with EXAMINE, ignore flag changes - proxy: Login success reply was sent in two IP packets, which confused some IMAP/POP3 clients - ACL plugin leaked memory a bit - dovecot-auth: allow_nets setting with network masks didn't work correctly with big endian machines.

I can't think of anything I've done since rc5 that would have touched that part of the code though.
