- Initially Dovecot would not respond to Thunderbird ("Could not connect to server localhost; the connection was refused"). Eventually, a "Trying ::1..." in the telnet log (see below) made me find hidden pref "network.dns.disableIPv6" and set it to FALSE. Which solves the problem -- but is this really needed, or have I done something wrong?
So localhost tried to use ::1 instead of 127.0.0.1? With Dovecot v1.0 if you set
listen = [::]
It listens for IPv6 and may also listen for IPv4 (don't know about OSX). With v1.1 you could have made sure Dovecot listens on both:
listen = *, [::]
- The Dovecot I built on OS X 10.4 appears to work fine when copied on another Mac running 10.5. Now, I'd love to avoid installing developer tools on both machines, but I fear this an illusion (some libraries are changing under us, e.g. libiconv.2.2.0.dylib --> libiconv.2.4.0.dylib). Does this mean I should try a static build? If so, what are the flags and how do I go about specifying a minimal set of libraries to include for my purposes?
No idea about this. configure doesn't directly support this.
