[Dovecot] imap/pop proxy and filter
Hi
I use dovecot as imap/pop proxy. Is it possible to filter the messages before they get delivered to the client?
Thanks for any hint how to achieve this. Mike

Dovecot's proxying is really dummy. I've some plans in v2.1 to make smarter proxying possible, but it's going to take a while. For now if you wanted to do something like this, you'd need to figure out something more complex.

What do you mean by this, something more complex? E.g. Do I need to set a hook into the source code? If so, please can you point me to the right place? Any other hint is very much appreciated.
Thanks, Mike

No, there's no way to do anything like this with Dovecot proxy. I meant maybe you could use fetchmail or imapsync or something similar to get the mails to your local server. A two-way sync isn't easy though. I don't have any good suggestions to do what you want.
