Gawd, what were they thinking?! And I wonder what their response will be to a blunt, "no, YOU, are wrong"? Why should an email server program go looking for places that you might have mail? Surely where mail is stored is something that the admin person ought to be configuring. If it were an occasional removable drive change, then I could possibly live with just ensuring that a start script was used somewhere to add in the parameters. But I'll just have to make sure than either the next server I set up doesn't get things plugging into it (though I suppose inserting a DVD-ROM into a drive is going to send it bananas, too), or I use another IMAP server program. Well done Dovecot programmers, what a fucking stupid thing to do. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
