Just happened to be surfing the docs and saw this. This is beyond awesome:

Any words of wisdom on using it? I'd be putting a bunch of mysql logic in

I was wondering if there was any imminent support in 2.3.12+ for using a
username to log into Redis, as well as support for using TLS to connect to
Redis. And if not, I'd like to put in a feature request for those two
things (AUTH with username/password, and TLS connections to Redis).

I've been working on moving our user base from maildir to mdbox and trying

This has got to be something weird in my config. And the standard

As someone who is about to begin the process of moving from maildir to
mdbox on NFS (and therefore just about to start the 'director-ization' of
everything) for ~6.5m mailboxes, I'm curious if anyone can share any
experiences with it. The list is surprisingly quiet about this subject, and

Just a quickie: why is "Connection queue full" logged under Info, instead
of something like error? Or at least have the word 'error' in it?
Seems like a pretty error-ish thing to happen. Anything that causes the
connection to fail from the server side should show up in a grep -i for
error. I.e. I
We just had a bunch of backend boxes go down due to a DDoS in our director
cluster. When the DDoS died down, our director ring was a mess.
Each box had thousands (and hundreds per second, which is a bit much) of
log lines like the following:

We've been using hibernate for about half a year with no ill effects. There

This is a 'has anyone run into this and solved it' post. And yes, I've been

Just had a minor suggestion, with no clue how hard/easy it would be to

The %f flag in deliver_log_format seems to pick up the From: header,

shows the "MAIL FROM" arg instead. I'm looking at tracking emails
