It's been a while since the previous beta, so I guess it's time for a new release. I wanted this one to be called v1.1.rc1, but Squat indexes still aren't completely working. My simple tests seem to work OK, but after doing some random appends+searches+expunges with imaptest it's giving too few results when searching.
I'm getting a bit tired of fixing the Squat code (although it's nearly done, finally..), so I'll most likely soon copy the current dovecot hg repository to dovecot-1.1 and start adding new features to the main dovecot repository for upcoming v1.2. The new features to be most likely implemented first are:
- Mailbox list indexes
- Thread indexes
- Virtual mailboxes
Some of the most important changes in beta15:
- If dovecot master kills itself, the error message is now written to a file in base_dir as well as to log file. When Dovecot starts the next time it shows this error message to user and asks to look into error log file. I'm hoping this will reduce "why dovecot exits silently after starting it?" questions.
- LDAP: Added tls_* settings for using TLS with OpenLDAP.
- POP3-only users shouldn't get dovecot.index.cache files created anymore when quota plugin is used
- Fixed/optimized handling pipelined commands
- rawlog: added -b parameter to log packet boundaries.
- auth: %a and %b were broken
