so what I do not understand:
- what the "group" means? why not just a simple {} pair?
- until no there wasn't any king of grouping eg. what can I write inside a login {} part? what is the server part ? etc... it seems to me a config file can become a big mass.
- in the 1. case server a is a union of all group where "server a" appear or???
everybody else understand it and just I'm so stupid?

Or maybe this makes more sense: "group" means that is only groups some settings. It doesn't create a server. "server" creates a server.
- Simply provide default settings for any subgroups without doing anything themselves:
group imap { protocols = imap # some IMAP defaults for a/b server a { ... } server b { ... } }
group pop3 { protocols = pop3 # different POP3 defaults for a/b server a { ... } server b { ... } }
- Are servers themselves, providing defaults for subgroups:
server main-server { # defaults login { listen = main.server.org } auth default { # ... } server debug-server { login { listen = debug.main.server.org auth_verbose = yes } # possibly a few other settings changed } }
