Is there some reason you can't use normal proxy instead of imap backend? That is,return proxy, host=imap_backend, port=1430? There seems to be no pipeline setting currently for imapc in v2.2.
Yes, because it's a dumb IMAP server, which doesn't implement a lot of things, like SEARCH, FETCH BODYSTRUCTURE and similar. Dovecot is used as a smart proxy, which makes it possible to use it as a fully featured IMAP server. Does the dumb server advertize pipelining?
Exactly how does an IMAP server advertise pipelining other than it says it's an IMAP server? :) There is no such capability, extension etc. It's in RFC3501, which defines IMAP v4r1.
Dovecot has a proxy_nopipelining setting for its IMAP proxy, I just want to use that (ie: no pipelining) with imapc too. Whether it's dynamically configurable, even with the existing proxy_nopipelining, or with an imapc_features flag, it doesn't matter for me.
Of course, setting this per user would be nicer.
