dovecot - Oct 2002 - replacing Courier imapd

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hi folks,

I currently use courier imapd, exim and ldap on my mail box. There are
no users on this box, all info is taken from the ldap server. I note
that dovecot does not use ldap as a backend, but curious if this in on
the cards, or even mysql backend.

It wouldn't be hard to implement them, but they're not high on my
TODO-list yet. If anyone else doesn't write them, I eventually will. 

They would be possible through vpopmail though, since it supports them
and Dovecot supports vpopmail. I wouldn't really encourage using
vpopmail though, doesn't look very secure.
