[Dovecot] Status of Dbox in 1.1
What is the status of dbox in dovecot 1.1 please?
I have read the release notes and checked the archives but I can't find this information.
TiA, Steve.

I asked the same question some time ago, with no real answers,

Probably nobody dares to be the first one using dbox and finding the issues :-).

There's one bug left that I'd like to fix before v1.1.0, but you probably won't run into it without stress testing..
This is now fixed in hg as well, so the next release should have a perfectly working dbox, or at least there are no bugs left that I'm aware of. :)
So, according to Timo, it should be working 'perfectly'... :)

*SHOULD* .. But no guarantees of course :) After writing that mail
I've found and fixed a couple of problems. Most (all?) of them were
related to accessing maildir files generated by the quick maildir-to-
dbox conversion.
