[Dovecot] I need to enable percent hack in dovecot logins
I am using dovecot with vpopmail and qmail and problems is percent hack that works with qmail-pop3d does not work with dovecot.
So login works like that:
firstname.lastname%domain.ext I need that function to work with dovecot too, and I am using stable 0.99.x series of dovecot.
Problem is that some Apple machines client can't use at-symbol in their login names.
So, where I need to hack sources to convert % -> @ to get login working.
By default percent-hack does not work with dovecot. Any help?
Thanks.

RTFdovecot-default.conf:
# Username character translations before it's looked up from databases. The # value contains series of from -> to characters. For example "#@/@" means # that '#' and '/' characters are translated to '@'. #auth_username_translation =

As You can see, that option is available only in 1.0 series, not in .99.xx what I am using.

So you know what you have to do.

Right, but you should not expect people here to know such details, especially about outdated versions.

Ok, my choices look like hacking "outdated" sources or update to 1.0a

hacking should not be too hard, just search where the @ is used and replace ist with %. I'd recommend using 1.0alpha. Simply upgrading is probably faster and you benefit from many improvements.
