Historically this has taken advantage of the Pine "rsh mailmachine /etc/rimapd" ability to avoid the need for the password: pre-authentication etc. (Yes, we realise that 'rsh' has security issues.) But when I try making symlink "/etc/rimapd" point to "/usr/dovecot/sbin/dovecot" this fails:
"dovecot --exec-mail imap" is the correct way to do this.
Could you document this in some prominent place, inside the package?
While this is shown on http://wiki.dovecot.org/CommandLine, I find it awkward to go online to check. While a Wiki is a good complement to share some cheats, may I ask for a complete documentation to ship with the Dovecot tarball? Some systems even have policies as to manual pages.
