If dovecot-auth was crashing with you, this release should fix it. I
don't know when it did though, I just applied a patch from Andrey Panin
with that description :)
Fixed also another dovecot-auth crash with Solaris and maybe some other
systems.
Contains the first attempt of a Dovecot LDA. It's still in pretty ugly
shape, but it should work, more or less. I wouldn't recommend using it
in production yet. There are two ways to use it:
1. As a normal user. The username is taken from passwd.
2. Giving -d <username> option. This connects to dovecot-auth and
requests the uid, gid, home, etc. from it. dovecot-auth's master socket
is expected to be in /var/run/dovecot/auth-master but you can override
this with -a parameter.
To actually create the auth-master socket you'll need to add this
inside auth { .. } :
socket listen {
master {
path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
mode = 0600
}
}
Dovecot LDA also currently needs dovecot-lda.conf file. Everything that
is read from it is just dumped into environment variables internally.
You should be able to set pretty much all the same settings in there as
exists in dovecot.conf. The most important exception is that instead of
default_mail_env there's just "mail". Example dovecot-lda.conf
would
be:
# note that namespaces aren't supported yet..
mail = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
mbox_read_locks = flock
mbox_write_locks = flock
# EOF
All this goes away once I get the config process implemented.
The actual usage goes something like:
/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d username < mail_file
ie. the mail is read from standard input. Any suggestions if the
"deliver" name should be changed and maybe moved to /usr/bin/?
Another large change is that I created dynamically growing array
implementation with possibility to do compile time type checking. The
old code was using buffer_t for arrays, but that got pretty ugly. I
changed most of those in lib-index/ to the new array API. I'd be happy
if someone changed the rest of them since it's pretty boring and time
consuming job :) See lib/array.h for explanation how it works.
