I'm all for hiding complexity. Though `doveconf -a` is interesting to see what I'm up against. Thanks for that > If you want minimal configuration fuss, you can try uw-imapd.

I did find PANDA-IMAP via Wikipedia. https://github.com/jonabbey/panda-imap I don't think PANDA-IMAP can do Maildir, thread references or meet my goals really. http://dabase.com/blog/Minimal_Dovecot/ > The sample configuration is verbose because it doubles as documentation: > you can use it as a starting point and remove the parts you don't need, > or start from the documentation and move forward.

I want to use Dovecot, though I do want to see this overhaul. I have already spent hours trying to get a sane email setup. I wouldn't mind editing the wiki if I had permission to so and ideally via a git backend. http://ikiwiki.info/ or without the Web interface http://laktek.github.io/punch/ is good.

I just see this proposal here: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2007-January/018786.html I want to see Dovecot hopefully fit my humble use cases. :-)
