It looks very promising, and anything that boasts security as a
fundamental is worth looking into. The only feature I see missing from
it is shared folders, at least from a quick look over the docs.

Thought, feelings, opinions?



Dovecot looks cool. I chatted online with some people who like it. I am against it for one reason: Shared Folders. There have been rumors of working that out, but it is not supported yet. Cyrus, however complex with authentication setup, has Shared Folders, Access Control Lists, and Sieve. procmail is (of course) much more capable than sieve, but sieve is a decent tool.

I recently had to rebuild the entire cyrus database for a site. We had corruption on two out of 3 drives in a RAID5. [oops?]. The only bad blocks were in the Cyrus database. I managed to recreate the mailbox database, and then cyrus reconstructed the mailboxes with the messages that were in the imap spool, and it was slick.
