And what is your experience with this ?

Do you find that inotify works/is picked up by dovecot ? or do you
find its just a feature that is enabled in the kernel, that is not
picked up by applications.

I'm interested....


I thought the "because" part made it pretty clear :)

I would like it to use inotify, but it doesn't because the headers are
too old. I never really understood why most (all?) distributors choose
to use kernel headers that doesn't match the running kernel.


got you - your right the because did make it clear to be fair.

Just wanted there to be no confusdion that it wasn't built with inotify, nor could it use inotify.
