We are preparing an IMAP proxy based on dovecot-2.2.22, basic proxy functionality is already working and I’m trying to understand if having the FTS service configured on the dovecot *proxy* would be of any use.
I do suspect it would be useless, I guess dovecot in imap proxy mode just forwards any command to the backend and does not bother to do anything about it, but I’m failing to find a definitive answer in the documentation. If I am guessing correctly, an fts service would only be useful if configured and working on the actual backend.
Can anyone clarify my doubts?
thank you,
