Hi! Sorry but that's just not possible, ther is no "core" where to create such object. There is no "dovecot" where to store things.
When user logs in, dovecot executes /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap and transfers the connection fd there. then plugins and stuff are loaded, and the user does what he does, and then plugins and stuff are unloaded and process exists and no longer exists in memory. You are clearly asking about memory persistence between sessions, and this can be done with a) services (internal or external), such as redis, sql, or something else b) storing things to disk Aki > On 13/03/2024 18:45 EET Joan Moreau via dovecot <dovecot@dovecot.org> wrote: > > > No, I am not referring to that > > I want to create an object at first call in memory > > that object would be retrievable at second and furthers calls of the > plugin, as long as dovecot is running > > On 2024-03-13 16:29, Aki Tuomi via dovecot wrote: > > > Not really no.
