Yes, I believe that, it looks ugly. But that way it was easily to setup with sendmail.
It seems that sendmail's LDA interface does not exactly match deliver's expectations. Hm, do we must support sendmail? No, but it is one of the most used mailservers. So what? 1. modify sendmail 2. modify deliver 3. insert a wrapper 4. ??? Now I tend to 3, but 2. would have the advantage to make dovecot more robust, also in collaboration with other MTAs. -- Frank Behrens, Osterwieck, Germany PGP-key 0x5B7C47ED on public servers available.
