I'm trying to run deliver from exim transport in a way that it doesn't need to
query userdb AND doesn't need to read configuration files.
The problem is that config files are readable for root only and if I run
deliver with multiple UIDs then I would have to allow reading config files for

dovecot binaries, deliver mainly

Hm, why libraries (not plugins) are installed in /usr/lib{,64}/doveoct instead
of proper place - /usr/lib{,64} (aka @libdir@) ?
Hi,
1) Why dovecot -n doesn't display default values? At least it didn't display

mail_max_userip_connections(imap): 20
mail_max_userip_connections(pop3): 10
if I had set ONLY mail_max_userip_connections (to be =10)
2) Maximum number of connections from

I guess if you paranoid that the system admin might read your emails,

Hi,
Is there a way for dovecot to use a pool of sql (mysql) servers and load
balance queries between these?
Also fallback to next available sql server if connection to previous one
fails.
Can dovecot do such things currently? (If not this is feature request).

You can try mysql-proxy:

This introduces single point of failure.
Support for switching to next mysql server in list if previous fails would be
enough.

Hi,
When there are maildir mail files without W= tag in name then dovecot opens
them, read data inside to calculate W= size, cache that information etc.
Would be it sensible to have option where dovecot would fix names of such
files?
Like if no W= then after calculating size rename file to

Hi,
I'm considering using delivery for delivering emails. The question is about
quota. Does delivery check quota for single maildir or for entire collection
of user folders?
Example:
/var/mail/user/{new,cur,tmp}
/var/mail/user/.Some_Folder/{new,cur,tmp}
Hello,
What smallest permissions are needed on directories:

/var/run/dovecot/login
/var/lib/dovecot

Currently I have
