I just found out that Dovecot 2.4 is a crippled version of Dovecot 2.3: no more clustering support, the director function has been removed. If you want to do clustering now, you'll have to buy a Pro license.

https://doc.dovecot.org/2.4.0/installation/upgrade/2.3-to-2.4.html#removed-features

So, although I've used Dovecot for years, both private and for work, it seems like this is the end of the line for me.

At the same time I see what @Stalwart Labs can do. Yes, clustering, for one. And a whole lot more, including bayesian classification, analysis of DMARC reports and even a reputation database.

I'm really impressed by what it can do. Bit hesitant about the fact that it's still only version 0.11.5 though, smells alpha...

Looks like Stalwart is the future for me.

@hans Version 1.0 will be released this year once WebDAV is implemented. The current release is stable (i.e. it is being used in production) but there might be some changes to the database schema during this year, that is the reason we're not 1.0 yet.

@stalwartlabs @hans any breaking changes you expect, or is an upgrade path in place?

@florianoverkamp @hans Yes, the metadata serialization format is going to change but migration will be done automatically. This new format will be released as v0.12 and no other major changes are expected until 1.0.

@florianoverkamp @fd0 @stalwartlabs @hans even on non-Linux hosts? FreeBSD or OpenBSD?
Couldn’t find a build in the website.

@mischa @fd0 @stalwartlabs @hans good question, and I don't know the answer :-)

@florianoverkamp @fd0 @stalwartlabs @hans nice!! Should have looked. I am even hosting openports.pl :)
