[Dovecot] 1.0 alpha3 released
I'm a bit too busy nowadays because of school so I haven't had time to look at everyone's bug reports and some other mails. They're still marked as unread in my mailbox, so hopefully I'll get to them soon. And I don't mind you resend them if I don't answer in a few weeks :)
Changes:
- Fixed maildir syncing errors about wrong UIDs
- Maildir was re-read all the time, even if we knew nothing had changed there
- SSL/TLS connections used to have extra ~0.2s latencies because kernel was waiting for more data before sending it (at least with Linux). Fixed it by corking/uncorking before/after sending. I don't think the socket latencies are this bad normally though, I should probably look more into it if we're setting some socket flags badly (or does it happen specifically because we were using corking for the socket before SSL and kernel increased the timeouts because it thinks we're going to be using corking?).
- Marking index file corrupted caused its recreation to still use old transaction log file, which usually caused the index to get corrupted again
- Added --build-options parameter to dovecot binary (by Andrey Panin)
- Parse obs-phrase correctly in mail address parser (by Chris Wakelin)
I'll check out Alpha 3 but for some reason Alpha 2 seems slower than Alpha 1 - especially when deleting messages. Using mbox format on 64 bit Linux.

I reported this on 20.8., so it probably qualifies :)
not really related to alpha3, but dovecot-lda still seems to recompile (or at least touch) .dovecot.sievec on every delivery.

I'm shocked you're not leveraging the power of IMAP! ;)
Just make a TODO folder and copy them there. Retire them to another folder when done.

That'd make me lose the thread around the mail. Especially because it might have already been answered by someone else or more information might have been added to the thread about the bug. "Unseen" is just fine for me :) Except even better would be some keyword, but Evolution still doesn't support them.
