[Dovecot] Re: fedora core 4 + mysql 5 + dovecot

[Roger Weeks]

Building a newer version of Dovecot on Fedora is dead simple:

./configure --with-mysql
make
make install

And you absolutely DO NOT want to run Dovecot with MySQL  
authentication using the 0.99 builds.  There are many many bugs.  Go  
get yourself the latest 1.0 beta version instead.
