Finally, 1.1.0-1 is out. Got into some potential problems with dynamic loading and *BSD, so we'll postpone the dl feature a bit.
This is mostly a major code cleanup release, but there are also a bundle of other things here. The service now uses privilege seperation (*), and the authenticator is now checkpassword-compatible only. (*) The pre-auth stub is called bincimap-up. It is not yet as primitive and unprivileged as it should be, but the invocation method is now done. The IMAP hierarchy delimiter is now '/' and not '.'. This means that subscribed-lists will have to be reset (most clients do this for you). You may suddenly discover that all your mailboxes are "gone". Just re-subscribe and you're back in business. For pine/mutt users, this is more hassle but just replace the '.'s with '/'s and you should be ok. Binc IMAP is now invoked exactly as qmail-pop3d. The change log lists all the changes: http://www.bincimap.org/dl/ChangeLog (Cool domain? ;)) The interested may want to experiment with setting "depot" to "IMAPdir" in the conf file (local config works now, so you can safely set it for only one user at a time). I find the "IMAPdir" depot to be a real pain killer, allowing mailboxes and submailboxes at any level, and also submailboxes under INBOX. Feedback is appreciated. The default depot is "Maildir++", so existing users should not experience too many problems.
