Hello everyone.
Just saw this commit in the official Github repo:
https://github.com/dovecot/core/commit/4c04e4c30fd4817a8b0e11d04d9681173f696...
Looking at the commit details, it appears that it completely removes the replication feature. I'm a bit perplexed by this change and am not sure what might be the justification for it. Personally, I find replication to be very useful, as it allows me to maintain a synchronized mirror of all of my mailboxes on my home server, for use as backup in case the primary server goes down for some reason.
Perhaps there's some sort of replacement being planned for this feature? Or maybe the relevant code is simply going to be refactored to a plugin or external program, and there's nothing to worry about at all?
In any case, I'd greatly appreciate if one of the developers could comment on this change.
