Hi,

I have trouble with the metadata plugin. I compiled dovecot 2.0.15 from source and also the plugin [2] separately. I work on debian/lenny. I had some trouble compiling it (autoconf somehow didn't insert the DOVECOT_IMAP_INCLUDE variable, I have not idea why)

Anyway, I did as described in [1]. Do I have to create: the file /var/lib/dovecot/shared-metadata ?

The server starts without errors, but I get for instance the following error message: "Failed to write some annotations for 'Contacts' on the IMAP server. SetMetaData failed, server replied: A000076 NO Parsing entry failed" from my KMail.

How can I test that the plugin is actually active and working?

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards, Georg
