[Dovecot] folder subscriptions
by seth vidal 25 Jun '03

Hi, I've got a lot of users using uw-imapd(yah, yah, I know) I'd like to get them off of that and onto dovecot at some point in the indeterminate future. so excluding bizarre path resolution things that uw-imapd has left around. is it more or less cp ~/mailboxlist ~/mail/subscriptions? It looks like that - but I wanted to verify :) thanks -sv

[Dovecot] New dovecot Debian packages.
by Jaldhar H. Vyas 24 Jun '03

24 Jun '03

I forgot to mention it here: Christof alerted me to the fact that there was a typo in my package which was causing LDAP support to fail. So I made new packages bringing them upto 0.99.10.rc2 in the process and uploaded them to unstable last night. They should arrive in the archive today. A backport to woody is also available from http://www.braincells.com/open/ -- Jaldhar H. Vyas <jaldhar(a)debian.org> La Salle Debain - http://www.braincells.com/debian/

Hi, with current test releases SSL doesn't work anymore for me on AIX 4.3 with dovecot-0.99.10-test14.
