Snow Leopard Mail Server to Use Dovecot
Posted in: Mac OS X Server by Damien Barrett No Comments »
Rumors abound that Snow Leopard’s Mail server will use Dovecot instead of Cyrus. This is excellent news.
According to the Dovecot project’s web site, the software is also “among the highest performing IMAP servers,” using self optimizing, transparent indexing of mail folders that support modification by multiple concurrent users. The software also supports IMAP extensions including IDLE push notifications, and provides plugins for handling ACL support and quota limitations. Apple is also expect to tout improvements of its own, including support for server side email rules and vacation messages.
