That's a spec to try and take this integration simplification further. Unfortunately neither Ivoks nor myself ended up with a lot of time to work on it this cycle. More volunteers always welcome.

RFC: remove dovecot-postfix from lucid
Sorry for breaking the thread, but I registered to comment on the proposal to drop dovecot-postfix and cannot see how to respond to an earlier message. I would like to say that I completely agree with Scott K: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-server/2010-April/004050.html We have a working solution that provides better functionality out of the box than Red Hat, et al. Let's implement a better solution when we have one, but don't throw out the existing 80% solution because it is not perfect. I struggled with inadequate, obsolete and conflicting documentation to set up the first Postfix/Dovecot mail server (on Red Hat) that I administered, and I think that the ability to easily implement a good configuration including SASL authentication is a big win for Ubuntu and definitely part of my decision to recommend Ubuntu Server over Red Hat at SMEs. Incidentally, where does this proposal leave the effort to add easy integration for Spamassassin and Clamav: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/server-lucid-more-mail-integration Roger -- ubuntu-server mailing list ubuntu-server@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam

My WIFI2200 slowly drops EVDO sensitivity. It was replaced once and continues to do the same. Is the third one the "Charm"? Jim -- Rev.

Well, the unexpected happened. It was a hardware error. Both boards (or CPU?) were faulty.
