Dovecot does much more than that, it can leverage local delivery as well as authentication from the MTA, which has a whole bunch of neat advantages, such as handling filtering rules and vacation messages. To implement those, dovecot can be patched to support sieve rules. And to let users manage the sieve configuration themselves, it also has managesieve support. Lots of clients/plugins out there can do managesieve, for instance the roundcube webmail. Check it out, it's definitely "the good ol' vacation" done right :-D http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve Matthias -- Clean custom Red Hat Linux rpm packages : http://freshrpms.net/ Fedora release 14 (Laughlin) - Linux kernel 2.6.35.11-83.fc14.x86_64 Load : 0.14 0.06 0.09 _______________________________________________ rhelv5-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv5-list
