- Lots of fixes for mmap_disable = yes. It finally seems to be working pretty well.
- POP3 idle timeouts changed to 10min
I just wrote a simple stress test tool for IMAP and I've had one for POP3 for some months. The IMAP stress test was very helpful in finding out the bugs I fixed today. If anyone wants to try them, they're in: http://dovecot.org/tools/

Still no happiness on the dovecot-auth front with secure login (running SuSE Linux Enterprise 9.0, FWIW):

Plaintext login works fine (so it probably isn't anything in the configuration file or user database setup).
I'm very motivated to get this fixed, since I am in the final stages of setting up a new mail server and would like to use Dovecot 1.0 instead of 0.99.something. This machine is not in production use, so I can offer full support for debugging this problem (up to and including giving you a local access for testing).
Please let me know if there is anything at all I can do to assist in fixing this problem...

This happens because you are using a passdb that doesn't work with anything else than plaintext (pam, passwd, shadow, etc.). Dovecot was actually supposed to be checking this and failing at startup but looks like I had broken the check at some point and instead it now just crashes.

That makes complete sense, now that you mention it. If I want to use a non-plaintext login, I'll have to use the SSL layer then (which I'll start testing now that I know this).
Thanks

Actually, now that you mention this, it _is_ possible to enable vpopmail to work with cram-md5, but only if you are running vpopmail with pw_clear_passwd set (which is what they recommend for larger sites). I'll take a look at the code and see about implementing that...

I still got the following when trying to move a message from one folder to another with TB 1.0rc. I can't move the message and my log are full of this error: Dec 5 17:40:38 aster dovecot: child 22746 (imap) killed with signal 11
Please tell if you need any more details.

Is the source folder in IMAP server or local? I couldn't reproduce it easily, so gdb backtrace would be useful. http://dovecot.org/bugreport.html

The source folder is on IMAP server: I'm trying to move a message from one folder to another, in the same IMAP tree. I'll manage to get a backtrace.
