Been running it for IMAP for 3 years or more. See > > ports/mail/dovecot and www.dovecot.org > sounds like everyone is sold on dovecot. Great!. I've a few questions. I went and looked it up on freshports.org and found the main web site. Can anyone explain to me what problems they have with mail clients attaching? See http://wiki.dovecot.org/Clients . This shows some interesting problems and I'd like to know if everyone using dovecot sees these problems. Second, how do programs like dovecot manage users? Does each user of the e-mail system need to be a user of the FreeBSD system (installed locally)? Thanks, Andy -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is it such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail?
