Fedora 43 and Dovecot version 2.4.2
Hello,
I am running Fedora 43 on a server which is running a dovecot server, version 2.4.1-8. I am not running a cluster, there is only one dovecot server running on the Fedora 43 instance.
Redhat has just updated the dovecot version on Fedora 43 to version 2.4.2-5.
I would like to upgrade dovecot to version 2.4.2. I assume that the dovecot_config_version should be changed to 2.4.2. Should the dovecot_storage_version be changed to 2.4.2 as well? Are there any steps that should be taken to upgrade the dovecot storage to version 2.4.2? FYI the mail_driver on the dovecot server is mbox: mail_driver = mbox.
Best regards, -Bill
