I said and say dovecot is the default IMAP server on FC2 because it is, at least if you do a fresh new install. Only if you upgrade i.e. from FC1 the cyrus-imapd is exchanging the obsolete uw-imapd, but that is some kind of "accident" (or call it a bug). Why is dovecot default? Because it runs out of the box without any need for adjustments. Of course you can change things, like between Maildir and mbox storage, and for running a POP3 server you need to edit the dovecot.conf too. But to get the cyrus-imapd to run there are much more things to do and the user needs a very deep understanding of things. > Aaron Konstam Alexander -- Alexander Dalloz | Enger, Germany | GPG key 1024D/ED695653 1999-07-13 Fedora GNU/Linux Core 2 (Tettnang) kernel 2.6.7-1.494.2.2smp Serendipity 17:14:40 up 11 days, 10:42, load average: 0.09, 0.32, 0.25
