So that means: From a "security" point of view, when using maildir (!)
there's no need to remove such headers, cause dovcote ignores them (on
maildir) always. Right?!

I just wondered because when I looked through my mail archive (currently
as mentioned, under Evolution)... many emails already had X-UID and
X-IMAP* headers.... (set by the remote side, not by Evolution) ... and
in no case these should be able to mess around in my dovecot :)

I'll have a question on that too, but ask it under a separate mail in a
few minutes,.. cause it doesn't fit this thread anymore ;)


Thanks,
