Hello Dovecot developers,
Apple has made and tested significant changes to Dovecot v1.1 and now is ready to contribute them back to your open source project. The changes include:
Sounds great!
Yes it does. Thanks, Apple!
I could contribute these as one giant patch or as a sequence of discrete patches. How would you prefer to receive them?
Separate patches would be easiest. I'll most likely put only the bug fixes to v1.1 and the rest to v1.2.
Timo, if I may make a request...Unless 1.2 will be released soon,
would you please also look into the possibility of integrating the
"back off after failed auth attempts" feature into the 1.1 code
base? I need that badly here, to the point that I was considering
writing such a patch myself. Hoards of little prepubescent
miscreants won't stop hammering on my pop3 port and it's driving me
bananas.
