Building a newer version of Dovecot on Fedora is dead simple:
./configure --with-mysql make make install
And you absolutely DO NOT want to run Dovecot with MySQL
authentication using the 0.99 builds. There are many many bugs. Go
get yourself the latest 1.0 beta version instead.

hi all
just a quick question i have dovecot (0.99.14 yum install) running on my fc4 server
to get this working, i had to downgrade from mysql 5 to fedora's
mysql rpm'si really would prefer to use mysql 5, but to satisfy the
dependencies, i had to go to mysql 4now, i just want to know if there is an rpm (linux rather than
specific fc4 version is fine) out there for dovecot, that i can use with
mysql 5definitely prefer rpm's to src as i don't really like getting into the nitty gritty of config/setup
thanks dave
