I want to test out my first V1.2 Dovecot (upgraded from V1.1) instance.
What I have in mind to do is to run it on another machine that has the
Inbox dir and homedirs NFS import mounted from the production
mailserver. I then have 5 people test it in this test environment....
A) Then I can deal with the index filesystem in one of two ways:
1) Make it local OR
2) NFS import it from the production DC server
Comments as to which is best? I have used #1 before...which caused some
temporary unhappiness with the switchover and switchback....during which
time the index is badly wrong and DC auto-rebuilds it...
B) Is there anything else I should do/not do?
C) Any ugliness that will surface in this testing lashup but isn't
important?
