[Dovecot] dovecot's LDA agent
Hi!
I am using courier IMAP with maildrop as LDA. I started reading about dovecot and i like started to feel that i can switch to it.
I have couple questions mostly about dovecot's LDA. My main problem with maildrop is that i have to create manualy user directories grr. All my domains are set up as virtual with postfix. So when i add new accout thru my web panel and i have to create user dir manually. This is really annoying thing. Maildrop checks if there is user dir before delivering mail. If not it report error.
I want to know if dovecot's LDA create automaticly user dirs or not. I need also filtering language in LDA and i kknow that LDA has option to use sieve scrips.
Generaly i am not sure that dovecot will be a good choice to switch from courier. Could anybody help me ?

Yes, it creates the dirs, as long as it has permission to. Using a shared UID/GID and virtual users, I've never had a problem.

Yep, sieve scripts. As for more indepth, like custom scripts for each user, I can't help more. I know it can do it, but the details I don't know about.
I like it. It works. Best thing is to setup a test system, and try it.
