Hi!
I'm currently running RH 9 with postfix, uw-imap and MailScanner. I want to install Fedora Core 2 (when it comes out next week) with postfix, dovecot and amavisd. I'm unhappy with the problems I'm having with MailScanner, with the difficulty I've had with authentication as I am currently configured, and want to move to Maildir instead of mbox.
That being said, is dovecot stable enough yet for production use? I only have four users on my home linux box, but I personally get around 500 emails a day (that fedora list is *busy*).
I've "backported" the latest Red Hat development packages of Dovecot to Red Hat 9 (simply rebuilt the RPM), and have 150+ users using it. My server runs Sendmail (milter plugins require it for now), Dovecot (using Maildir), SpamAssassin (via procmail), ClamAV (via milter), and Anomy Sanitizer (via procmail). There are a couple of customflags annoyances between Mozilla based mail clients and Dovecot running Maildir, however it has otherwise proven quite stable in my enivronment. We process about 5-6000 mails per day.
HTH, -Rick
