Hello,

I tried to migrate from popa3d to dovecot but I couldn't manage with
'pop3_reuse_xuidl = yes' option.

First of all it turned out that the feature is not supported in dovecot 
for Fedora Core 4 (dovecot-0.99.14-4.fc4).
So I downloaded latest stable release of Dovecot but it didn't have this 
option included too. Then I compiled the newest alpha version (dovecot 
1.0.alpha4) and I tried to login with 'pop3_reuse_xuidl = yes' option 
enabled and I've got in my logfile the following output:

Nov  1 00:58:33 sneogg dovecot: pop3-login: Login: user=<test2>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured
Nov  1 00:58:33 sneogg dovecot: pop3(test2): Set pop3_uidl_format setting in config file
Nov  1 00:58:33 sneogg dovecot: child 32067 (pop3) returned error 89

And my session was disconnected immediately each time after sucessful 
authentication..

I tried to set up pop3_uidl_format to MD5 (%m) but it didn't work...

Let me ask if there is a possibility to migrate from popa3d to dovecot 
(by using a proper patch maybe?)?


I'd thankful for any response...

Janusz
