Replacing Dovecot is also my goal. >But Stalwart is 100% take it or leave it, and once one is 100% in I >don't think there is going to be much motivated support for ever >getting out. Doesn't Stalwart offer a way to turn the other stuff off, so you can continue doing everything else just like you've always done? If the answer is "no", that's a horrible violation of modularity. If the answer is "yes", I'm *very* interested. My attitude toward Dovecot is "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." I don't want to end up a fool somewhere down the road. >Lock-in doesn't just happen with commercial products.
