I've still over 200 mails unread in the mailing list, and important things left in TODO. This release is an improvement over rc7 anyway, hopefully I'll have time to fix the rest soon.

* GSSAPI: Changed POP3 service name to "pop", which is what the
standard says
* "mbox:/var/mail/%u" no longer works as the mail location. You'll
have to specify the mail root explicitly, just like the examples
always have: "mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u"
+ SHA1, LDAP-MD5, PLAIN-MD5, PLAIN-MD4: The password can be now either
hex or base64 encoded. The encoding is detected automatically based
on the password string length.
+ Allow running only Dovecot master and dovecot-auth processes with
protocols=none setting
+ deliver: -f <envelope sender> parameter can be used to set mbox
From_-line's sender address
+ deliver: Log all mail saves and failures
+ Tru64 SIA passdb support. Patch by Simon L Jackson.
- INBOX was listed twice in mailbox list if namespace prefix was used
- INBOX-prefixed namespaces were a bit broken
- kqueue: Fix 100% CPU usage
- deliver: Duplicate storage was a bit broken
- dictionary code was broken (ie. dict quota)
- SIGHUP caused crashes sometimesHi,

Immediately at startup or sometimes later? What about the reason why the login process crashed? If it's not shown it's because there's a bug that sometimes the last logging messages are lost.. If you run dovecot through strace -f you should see the messages (probably in log, or at least in the strace log).

It was running fine for ~24 hours, then it crashed.
There wasn't anything else in the log besides what I posted - I'll try and run logging with full debug enabled, that might provide more details, should it happen again.
I'm not familiar with running strace though :)

This patch should fix the logging:

Hmh. Maybe the logging patch didn't fix it completely then. How about this then, it just slows down creating login new login processes instead of killing the whole dovecot:

Hrm, I read the other thread about this issue - do you think the cause is that max connections are reached?
It's not at least that simple, because I can't reproduce it by setting max login processes to 2 and then trying to log in with more than 2 clients in different ways.
