Thanks for the answer.<br><br>Hook API is usefull when u need to do some action on some events:<br>For example:&nbsp; Hook on Event - AfterReceivingMail - send sms to user, start antivirus, any processing of email (analyzing, modifying...)
<br><br>But its simple case... I have at least 2 project where I need extend Dovecot functionality. Its possible to write patches for source code but&nbsp; would be much better if it will be implemented officially so anyone can use it.
<br><br>I didnt understand ur idea to be honest.... So its possible to run shell on when IMAP command arrived? what about parameters? username, mailbox etc...?<br><br>Best Regards<br>Boris<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">
