However, to answer the question. I don't think it's possible. There are a lot of neat config options, but I don't think the exact use case is possible. It may be easy to implement, im not familiar with dovecots parse_config(). Maybe store the first occurrence of a setting, but replace it with the last encountered.> -- > [*] sys4 AG > > http://sys4.de, +49 (89) 30 90 46 64 > Schlei?heimer Stra?e 26/MG, 80333 M?nchen > > Sitz der Gesellschaft: M?nchen, Amtsgericht M?nchen: HRB 199263 > Vorstand: Patrick Ben Koetter, Marc Schiffbauer > Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender: Florian Kirstein
