Dovecot - “It took almost 5 years, but it’s finally ready”

Monday, April 16th, 2007

It took almost 5 years, but it’s finally ready. I’m not expecting to release v1.0.1 anytime soon, unless someone’s been sitting on a major bug just waiting for v1.0 to be released. :)

People wanting new features should start testing the upcoming v1.1. http://dovecot.org/nightly/ contains now snapshots from CVS HEAD. It already has tons of new features. I’ve been using it myself for half a year, so it should be mostly stable too. I’ll write a separate mail about this later.

Dovecot is an open source IMAP and POP3 server for Linux/UNIX-like systems, written with security primarily in mind. Dovecot is an excellent choice for both small and large installations. It’s fast, simple to set up, requires no special administration and it uses very little memory.
