Though it will affect future builds for Fedora Core, as the dovecot coder seems to have changed something with locking which is not compatible with the way Fedora and Redhat treats /var/mail/$user permissions. If it is under each circumstance that easy to "fix" with the new configuration setting, then it is no big problem. The dovecot maintainer will only have to be aware of this implication :) > Ow Mun Heng Alexander -- Alexander Dalloz | Enger, Germany | GPG key 1024D/ED695653 1999-07-13 Fedora GNU/Linux Core 2 (Tettnang) kernel 2.6.8-1.521smp Serendipity 19:11:12 up 15 days, 16:27, load average: 0.39, 0.65, 0.81
