dovecot - Apr 2006 - Test version for production servers for shared folders

Dear List,

Is the latest test version suitable for production systems?

Our current servers use 0.99 on FC4 and we would like to add shared
folders via the test version.

Has anyone migrated this way before?

Thanks,

Gavin.

Funnily, for Dovecot, the latest beta versions are always more stable ;)

In Pocataligo, Georgia, it is a violation for a woman over 200 pounds
and attired in shorts to pilot or ride in an airplane.

We're happily running 1.0-beta3 in production (~20,000 users), but one
or two users have hit the bug in the Outlook-idle workaround, which is
fixed in 1.0-beta5 (a couple of users are now using 1.0-beta5, but I'll
wait to see if this bug a big issue before upgrading).

I'd agree with Odhiambo, the 1.0-betas are probably more stable than
0.99.x. I just get a bit jumpy when Timo replaces whole chunks of code
in one go (like the ssl code rewrite in 1.0-beta4 that had to be reversed).

To sum up, yes, use the betas, but maybe wait a week or so after each
release!

Best Wishes,
Chris
