I run my own personal small e-mail server, I'm currently using Dovecot for IMAP (and Postfix on Debian) and I don't like it.
Actually, I really *do* like the dsync feature that will replicate between servers, but it didn't run out-of-the-box, I needed to make code changes and compile my own .deb. In the process I discovered that source code is a scary mess. And the maintainer seems to know it because in the most recent version they didn't fix it, they deleted the whole feature. And abruptly ended *all* support of the previous version. Following their mailing list I see migration problems for people going to the new version, including crashes if the config has problems. Not an error, a crash. This all smells bad to me and has me thinking I need to get off Dovecot and so I am looking for something better. There seems to be activity in the we-do-it-all integrated e-mail software space, but I just want an IMAP server I might swap in as a trial, maybe swap it out. Is Cyrus a good choice for me, circa summer 2025?
