[Dovecot] corrupted empty message with CVS
with CVS as of an hour ago i'm seeing corruption of messages (in an mbox) with an empty message body.
for example, here's what i have in my test INBOX right after receiving the empty message:

and then i use pine 4.58 to access {localhost}INBOX and it shows a corrupted message (no subject/etc) then i quit pine, and here's what the INBOX looks like on disk afterwards:

CVS is more or less broken, especially with mbox. Not such a good idea to use it right now.
darn... is there a 0.99.11-testN which you recommend? i tried -test8 and -test9 last night as well and they also didn't seem to be very happy with mbox (no corruption, but they couldn't parse some valid mbox files).
primarily what i'm looking for is support for both /etc/shadow and vpopmail authentication. i was lead to believe i need some version of 0.99.11 to get these to work in concert.

They're even more broken than current CVS :)

Well, yes.. What probably would work quite well is to install CVS but use imap binary from 0.99.10.4.

haha! ok... i'll give that a whirl next time i have a chance :)
i have a related question -- i wonder if it would be hard to move more config options into the auth subsections. i'd like to conditionalize default_mail_env, and {last,first}_valid_{u,g}id based on whether the login is "auth default" or "auth vpopmail". i was planning on digging through the code at some point, but figured it was worth asking.

I did think about that before, but then thought it's not worth the trouble. It's possible by using server { .. } blocks, but that requires each server listening in different IP or port.
