deliver is the binary name. but it's configured inside protocol lda {} section. This is getting annoying, any thoughts on what would be a good unifying name?
a) deliver binary, protocol deliver {}
b) lda binary, protocol lda {}
c) dovecot-lda binary, protocol lda {}
d) mda binary, protocol mda {}
e) dovecot-mda binary, protocol mda {}
f) something else?
In any case protocol lda {} would work for a while longer for backwards compatibility.
c) and e) choices also makes me think if e.g. imap and imap-login should be called dovecot-imap and dovecot-imap-login instead. People have had trouble finding them since ps|grep dovecot doesn't find them..
I like option c as well, however I don't like the idea of three level binary and process names dovecot-this-that. Hopefully a better solution to the imap/imap-login missing 'dovecot' will be found.
