>> 	+ doveadm sync/backup: Added -I <max size> parameter to skip too
>> 	  large mails.
>> 	+ doveadm sync/backup: Fixed -t parameter and added -e for "end date".
>> 	+ doveadm mailbox metadata: Added -s parameter to allow accessing

>> 	- auth: Fixed auth_bind=yes + sasl_bind=yes to work together
>> 	- auth: Blocking userdb lookups reset extra fields set by previous

>> 	- auth: Cache keys didn't include %{passdb:*} and %{userdb:*}

>> 	- lmtp_user_concurrency_limit is now checked before quota check with
>> 	  lmtp_rcpt_check_quota=yes to avoid unnecessary quota work.
>> 	- lmtp: %{userdb:*} variables didn't work in mail_log_prefix

>> 	  namespace prefix was non-empty.
>> 	- Fixed writing >2GB to iostream-temp files (used by fs-compress,
>> 	  fs-metawrap, doveadm-http)
>> 	- director: Ignore duplicates in director_servers setting.
>> 	- zlib, IMAP BINARY: Fixed internal caching when accessing multiple

>> 	- doveadm stats reset wasn't reseting all the stats.
>> 	- auth_stats=yes: Don't update num_logins, since it doubles them when

>> 	- quota count: Fixed deadlocks when updating vsize header.
>> 	- dict-quota: Fixed crashes happening due to memory corruption.
>> 	- dict proxy: Fixed various timeout-related bugs.

>> 	- imap-hibernate: Don't un-hibernate if client sends DONE+IDLE in one

>> 	- imap-hibernate: Fixed various failures when un-hibernating.
>> 	- fts: fts_autoindex=yes was broken in 2.2.25 unless
>> 	  fts_autoindex_exclude settings existed.
>> 	- fts-solr: Fixed searching multiple mailboxes (patch by x16a0)
>> 	- doveadm fetch body.snippet wasn't working in 2.2.25. Also fixed a
