status report about inotify on Debian Etch:

- idling
- 3 EXISTS
- 1 RECENT
and "new" is moved into ~name/Maildir/cur immediately. So, I guess, it means inotify is working.

Well, could Dovecot adapt to Debian Etch, e.g. to specify an alternate inotify.h location with ./configure, maybe search the default location ?
Bye.
