Hi all,

Pin your current Dovecot 2.3.x now, and don't allow an upgrade to
2.4.x. Dovecot's documentation is disorganized, unhelpful,
contradictory, and often just plain wrong. Right now the Dovecot
project is going through problems caused by their crippling free
software Dovecot in order to sell a commercial Dovecot with earlier
Dovecot's features. They call 2.4.x Dovecot Community Edition. I'm
calling it Dovecot Breaking Edition.

I'm waiting to see how this all shakes out before I go to 2.4.x . It
wouldn't surprise me a bit if 2.3.x, the last fully functional free
software Dovecot, gets forked.

If you noticed my 5 day absense, it was because an ugrade to Dovecot
2.4.1 made Dovecot unuseable, and Dovecot is the central component of
my email reception system. I finally walked it back to 2.3.31 and held
(Voidese for "pinned") it there.

Yeah, I'm looking for alternative IMAP servers that store via a
standard Maildir: Something I can plug in to directly replace Dovecot.
