[OpenIndiana-discuss] How often is sfe Dovecot updated?

[Hans J. Albertsson]

I'm in exactly the same situation re dovecot. No doubt several others 
are, too.

Keeping an SFE package updated is probably no more work than keeping 
your own installation updated from sources.

Different, and a little bit of a learning curve to traverse, but not 
terribly difficult even that.

If that seems daunting, SVr4 packages can be kept updated and 
downloadable from somewhere,
and those are possibly a little easier to produce.

Either way, others would benefit. If you decide to go down this road, 
call on me, and I could try to help out.

If I end up using dovecot - which I probably will - I'd like to keep it fairly up to date.  I'm trying to decide whether I want to use the sfe repository, or write my own update script to keep it updated from the sources.
