Binary packages in https://repo.dovecot.org/

The default postmaster_address is now "postmaster@<user
domain or
server hostname>". If username contains the @domain part,
that's
used. If not, then the server's hostname is used.
"doveadm stats dump" now returns two decimals for the "avg"
field.

Added push notification driver that uses a Lua script
Added new SQL, DNS and connection events.
See https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Events
Added "doveadm mailbox cache purge" command.
Added events API support for Lua scripts
doveadm force-resync -f parameter performs "index fsck"
while opening
the index. This may be useful to fix some types of broken
index files.
This may become the default behavior in a later version.

Are you able to upgrade to FreeBSD 10 or 11 ?
...
I will be upgrading the servers to 11.2 soon :)
The OS version is irrelevant.
Fix for this format issue and the signal.h issue can be found in master
now, and you can download the patch at
https://github.com/dovecot/core/compare/10048229%5E...de42b54a.patch
Aki
The patch doesn't resolve the permissions issue
on /var/run/dovecot//stats-writer so I have backed off again - to 2.3.3.

Well, to be exact no one claims it does fix it. You can work around it
with
service stats {
unix_listener stats-writer {
mode = 0777
}
}

Aki Tuomi
I'll wait for the fix instead of the workaround.
Thank you very much for entertaining my noise :-)
