extend dovecot -n to output current config as xml ?
maybe even configure it all via xml ?
All the configuration goes through src/config/* code, which can be easily replaced with anything else. The original idea was to make it possible to store the configuration in different formats, like XML or SQL. Then again, the current config code is horrible and should be rewritten, especially to make it more modular and be able to use different formats without having to recreate the whole config code. And it’s currently spending way too much CPU, which might become a problem in some complex setups. So yeah, I think it would be nice, but I also think there are a lot of other much more important things that need to be done.
its also if xml its simple to make webconfigs from the xml file, but nice that you see config as a problem that needs redisigning before create another problem with subject, here i still using dovecot 1.2.17 in gentoo, i feal no need yet to discard that old software yet here, asked gentoo devs to put it back to portage, but was denied for some reason i just dont understand as you still have wiki for version 1 it should imho be supported in os'es as well
for the dovecot submission server will that mean dovecot will now get the imap folder for sending mails ?
thanks btw for brind mta up, i think dovecot/postfix is a well working combo
