Hello!
I'm running dovecot in a sendmail/Mailscanner/procmail/mbox environment.
I want to use dovecot lda because index files aren't updated when using sendmail as lda.
Has someone this combination running and some configuration hints so that sendmail, Mailscanner and procmail ist working well.
Does procmail work with lda, too?
Thank you for the answer.
Ciao, Gerhard
Gerhard,
if you switch to dovecot LDA, you would basically be replacing procmail. dovecot LDA will work with both mbox and Maildir file storage formats (as well as a few others I believe)
dovecot LDA uses sieve for its scripting language, compared to procmail which has its own language, so if you migrate from procmail you'll need to be sure to migrate any scripts as well from procmail to sieve format.
I haven't done any sieve migration yet and just recently got dovecot LDA working with my sendmail installation on my test machine. I'm still in the middle of testing with it so I don't have all the answers yet.
Anyways, I hope this little bit of information is helpful.
