That's why I asked ;-) here it was mentioned that 2.3 gets security patches: https://dovecot.org/mailman3/archives/list/dovecot@dovecot.org/thread/3P45L76DOC3NKUNSSPIXQNKINGOCYH5K/ I don't know if the 2.3 repositories for Debian will be maintained also, but I assume so. The upgrade to 2.4 is planned here, but the config changes are quite drastic as far as I see. Until I figured out how to convert all the sieve- and imapsieve-parameters I will stay on 2.3. Yes, I read the docs, sure, but without some kind of secondary test-clone this looks too risky for me right now. I prepare the new config in a test VM and work my way through it until dovecot doesn't complain anymore. I assume the 2.3 repos will live for a few months from now, I will be ready to upgrade sooner ;-) _______________________________________________ dovecot mailing list -- dovecot@dovecot.org To unsubscribe send an email to dovecot-le...@dovecot.org -- kind regards / mit freundlichen Grüßen Moosbauer Josef <jo...@moosbauer.net> GPG Fingerprint 6748 9413 0EF1 5B23 D707 DBFA 570B 00E3 4689 8CC9 "Of course I'm crazy, but that doesn't mean I'm wrong.I'm mad but not ill"
