Hello,
From: "Quentin Garnier" cube@cubidou.net
- In about a minute, NTP daemon feels confident about adjusting the system time. The admin should run ntpdate before launching ntpd and dovecot. ntpd will _never_ move time backwards under normal drifting conditions (it has other ways of coping with that).
Please read carefully. ntpd IS run before dovecot, but a change of time happens some time later. Of course, dovecot starting script can be hacked to sleep for some time, but it feels like a wrong way to solve a problem.
Best wishes Eugene
