dovecot - Jan 2009 - Personal dovecot

Do you think it wold be worthwhile to add command line options to
"deliver" and "imap" to make them ignore "system
wide" configuration
file and use ~/.dovecotrc instead?

I would like to use "imap via fetchmail ssh plugin" and 
"deliver via ~/.forward (to get sieve support)". 
Such options would allow "cleaner" configuration.

How about:

dovecot -c ~/.dovecotrc
deliver -c ~/.dovecotrc

I need "single IMAP session via stdin/stdout". I think you meant:
dovecot -c ~/.dovecotrc --exec-mail imap

As I understand imap command supports no command line options [1.0.15]
Can "full imap command configuration" be achieved via MAIL and
MBOX_LOCKS environment variables?

OK.

P.S.
dovecot imap works great with fetchmail - I achieved "*very* short
delay" delivery
* "ssh host .../imap" as --plugin 
* procmail as --mda (procmail calls "deliver -e")
*  --idle option)

I just want to ask a few questions, polish the final bits and finally
"set and forget" ;-)

Thanks :-)
