Hello,
I want to migrate from courier-imap to dovecot and now i am trying out dovecot1.1.alpha3 But i have problems getting the expire plugin to work.
You're probably the first one trying to do that. :)
At startup i get the message: Unknown dict module: db As far as i understood i have to compile the backend manually an copy it into tho appropirate place. But how can i do this ?
I think the easiest way would be for you to at least first make it work via dict proxy. So:
Make sure config.h has BUILD_DB defined. That means it's actually building with the berkeley db support.
See "Dictionary proxy server" in http://wiki.dovecot.org/Quota/Dict and change your config to use something similar.
If that works and you want to drop dict proxy, then you'll need to play some with Makefiles to get this to work. I can try to figure out then if there's a way to make configure do this automatically with some option.
