I have merely updated it to apply to the current 0.99.10.4 version of Dovecot. I would say this is somewhat better than experimental, as I have been using it for two months now with zero problems at all. Note that there is no 'configure' logic in this patch, accordingly you need to set a couple of flags manually to compile MySQL support. Here's how I compile, for reference: AUTH_CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include/mysql -DPASSDB_MYSQL -DUSERDB_MYSQL" \ AUTH_LIBS="-L/usr/local/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient" \ \ ./configure \ --prefix= \ --disable-ipv6 \ --with-ssldir=/etc \ --with-storages=maildir \ --without-passwd \ --without-passwd-file \ --without-static \ --without-pam \ \ && make Hope this helps you as much as it's helped me. Thanks again to Matthew for this work. David Madole -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

(I'm quite curious why this hasnt been merged with the current dovedot development release.. That is, if there is a development reason ;))> I would say this is somewhat better than experimental, as I have been using > it for two months now with zero problems at all.Excellent.. Thanks.. Has anyone done any benchmarking to see how dovecot compares to courier? Regards, Cami
