Dovecot news - Dec 2010 - Released Pigeonhole v0.2.2 for Dovecot v2.0.8

Hello Dovecot users,

The new Dovecot v2.0.8 release has a few changes that prompted changes 
in Pigeonhole as well. This means that a new release of Pigeonhole is 
also necessary, because otherwise things will not compile anymore.

Apart from a few rather minor bugfixes, some of which originate in 
Dovecot, one TODO item has finally been resolved: the reject action uses 
the LDA mail reject API, meaning that the associated LDA settings now 
also work for Pigeonhole, as would be expected.

Changelog v0.2.2:

  * LDA Sieve plugin: started using Dovecot LDA reject API for the
    reject extension. This means that the LDA reject_reason and
    reject_subject settings now also work for Pigeonhole's LDA Sieve
    plugin.
  * Did some work on the new sieve-filter tool. It is mostly
    functional, but it is not finished yet.
  * Dovecot change: services' default vsz_limits weren't being enforced
    correctly in earlier v2.0 releases. Now that they are enforced, you
    might notice that the default limits are too low and you need to
    increase them. This problem will show up in logs as "out of
memory"
    errors. See default_vsz_limit and service { vsz_limit } settings.
  - Imap4flags: fixed segfault bug occurring in multiscript context.
  - Added version checking to the ManageSieve settings plugin. This
    plugin was forgotten when the LDA plugin was updated with this
    change in the previous release.
  - LDA Sieve plugin: fixed memory leak at deinitialization.

The release is available as follows:

Refer to http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org and the Dovecot v2.0 wiki for 
more information. Have fun testing this new release and don't hesitate 
to notify me when there are any problems.

Thanks! It builds and runs well for me, but you may want to consider
updating the information in the wiki, which indicates there are no
formal releases, and that Mercurial should be used to obtain the code.
