Re: How to run IMAP as non-root, port 1024

2003-08-24 Thread Creighton MacDonnell
For someone who is contemplating customization code to suit themselves, 
I would suggest that they are better off looking at the UW-IMAP code 
than at the Cyrus code.

I speak from experence.

something similar, then you should probably be looking at the Cyrus imapd,
which was designed from the start to run on sealed servers, not normal UNIX
boxes running a more or less normal mail installation.

I received a patch... incredible!
Let me emphasize again that I am not promising to support this or to 
ensure it works with new releases.

I'm new to this list... did you submit your patch to the maintainer of
UW-IMAP in the past?
It could be part of the default release but only activated by some
configuration option.
No. I did not.

I don't even know if the UW-IMAP devleopment team is interested in input 
of this sort from the user community. I only joined this mailing list 
recently myself.
