Hello, 

I have dovecot 1.2 build at launchpad :

https://launchpad.net/~n-bochev/+archive/ppa

It's not the latest hg revision ( or the one you'll find on Stefan's repository 
) but it's recent enough and it gets updated monthly or so.
I am running it on a few production servers and i don't tend to upgrade them 
often.
If there's interest in builds for other ubuntu version ( 8.04, 8.10 ) i will 
put those up too. 9.10 build will be available when karmic gets released.

I had a look at the backports-page of debian. There are now some
backports, even for 64bit:
http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=dovecot&searchon=names&section=all&suite=lenny-backports

So we need to change this too...

how to add the backports-thing to your system is described here:
http://backports.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=instructions

If you are running Ubuntu 9.04 ($ lsb_release -sir) this should work as
their packages are based on debian lenny.

When you have any questions, dont hesitate to ask. There are many howtos
about backporting on the internet. One example is this (its in german,
but you should understand it according to your domain name...;):
