these are build from the sources that are automatically build for the debian system mentioned in the wiki http://wiki2.dovecot.org/PrebuiltBinaries#Automatically_Built_Packages (only difference to these are some changes to the build file for version numbers and the changelog file). only building official releases named ...~auto0 packages

Hi,

Two things:

1. Does anyone know of a good PPA with updated packages of Dovecot for Ubuntu? "For the latest Dovecot for latest Ubuntu LTS see Xiaoka APT Repository. (Outdated. Could someone provide a ppa for latest stable Dovecot, please?)"

2. On the http://wiki2.dovecot.org/PrebuiltBinaries#Ubuntu page there is a link to a supposedly outdated PPA, the ppa page now redirects to an ad for the guys services so should probably be removed.

Hi,

In my ppa https://launchpad.net/~bigmichi1 i provide the latest version of dovecot for the latest version of Ubuntu. It is build after a official release.

Thanks! I will give it a try on a dev server. Does it follow the debian split config files layout?  Also, which sources are the debs built from? I would like to try building it my self for comparison.
