Remember the old UNIX paradigm -- do one thing and do it well.
Dovecot is
an IMAP server, and does the job well. A calendaring server is an

different beast, and should be seperate from the pop3/imap server,
even if
only to improve security and reliability.

I agree with you 100%, Geert.
I don't even understand the desire to perform sieving / filtering at
the imap level. From our perspective, that work belongs higher up...
as close to the MTA as possible. Here we use MPP (Message Processing
Platform) http://www.raeinternet.com/ Catches a pipe from Postfix
via lmtp. Has done it's job well for years!
