Re: [Dovecot] xinetd and pop3
i just wonder ... when you run the dovecot master anyway.... why dont you run pop3 via the dovecot master aswell? How would I get the pop3 process to run via the dovecot master?
in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf replace: protocols = imap imaps with: protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s
Yes, I currently have "protocols = pop3 pop3s". I am using xinetd to start pop3-login because I have a VPS not a dedicated server and I am trying to conserve memory usage. Eventually, I will start also start imap-login via xinetd and will add those protocols (protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s).

the memory usage of those "login" processes is pretty low and you get limit the number of workers (login_processes_count in the config).
that said your xinetd doesnt gain you much.
