I'm new to Dovecot and will be using it with Postfix. I'm looking for
recommendations regarding the use of Dovecot's LDA or LMTP for virtual

Many of the simple examples on the wiki use LDA. So I've set that up
initially. But apparently an advantage of LMTP is recipient veri

Well, the background process is hogging CPU and RAM while it basically
does nothing.

Well, the background process is hogging CPU and RAM while it basically does
nothing. And when it's running as root there is always the danger of privilege

Hi there,
I'm using Dovecot together with Postfix; as I understand it, there are two ways
