Okay - everyone stand back! I'm getting ready to convert / upgrade my

I have now upgraded my production box to the RPM Dovecot (2.0.11)
version and all went smoothly. It actually seems faster on my client at
home (Thunderbird checking three mailboxes (different domains) on the
same server).
The conversion took about 5 minutes and the instructions on the wiki
were exactly on target.

Glad to hear this, Scott. Thanks.
I figured you'd like a bit of feedback for all the work you put into the
task.
My next step is to take the new machine (VM) I built yesterday and
perform the replication (from Jake's video) so that we have two servers
running about 10 minutes apart. Nothing like a hot backup if one goes down!
I've tried this before and out of three times I've tried, only one has
worked. The bad news on that one time that worked is that the server
and internet speed at the remote site was way too slow, so it caused
issues and had to be terminiated. The MySQL replication works perfectly
every time. It's the Unison part that failed the last two times. Cross
your fingers!
Thanks,
Scott
