dovecot - Aug 2010 - Fully kerberized mail system

Hello,

Is it possible to use Dovecot in a fully kerberized mail system?

We have configured authentication via kerberos, now we would like the
imap deamon to access a kerberized nfs file system. Has any one any
experiences?

Regards,

Matthew.

I do not know if dovecot is setup to do it, but you will need to look at
delegation. Many, but not all, kerberos aware programs can do delegation
nor accept delegation.
