Good afternoon, I am considering to upgrade from Dovecot 1.1.18 to 1.2.x and was reading your Wiki regarding any changes and found: "If you were using e.g. mail_location = maildir:/var/mail/%h, just change it to mail_location = maildir:%h and add /var/mail/ prefix to home dirs." I am currently using: "mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir" in combination with vpopmail. Does this need to be changed? or is ~/Maildir considered an absolute directory? Is there anything else I should be aware of ? Sincerely, - Wouter van der Schagt

> If you find out anything, add it to the wiki..Upgrade went relatively smooth. I did get 2 error messages though in the errorlog. Error: Error in configuration file /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf line 18: Unknown setting: ssl_disable Error: Error in configuration file /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf line 81: Unknown setting: login_greeting_capability Are these settings deprecated? and if so, what supersedes them? Commenting them out for now did the trick. Sincerely, - Wouter van der Schagt
