- Exim: We currently deliver all of our mail via Exim on separate servers. Our POP3/IMAP servers only do POP3/IMAP and the Exim mail servers delivering to maildirs only do Exim. From what I've seen in the docs and various threads, from what I can gather, the best thing to do in that case would be to use Exim's built-in maildir handling, instead of using 'deliver'. That would be my preference anyway, but I wanted to make sure I didn't misinterpret things.
v2.0 supports also LMTP server, so you could deliver to Dovecot that way.
Since Exim wouldn't be touching the index files, is it safe to leave exim as-is and let it handle the deliveries to the maildirs natively? Exim's already got access to everything it needs including the quota. I just want to make sure I won't horribly corrupt anything leaving it as-is -- but I'm also desirous to not have to mess with how deliveries are currently being done.
