Do you really need lmtp for that, though? As far as I remember simply |
| 9 |
piping the messages to the /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver program, as the |
| 10 |
deilivery mechanism, will ensure the same thing. I don't know postfix |
| 11 |
much though, so maybe that's hard to do with postfix, unlike my pet |
| 12 |
exim. |

Also, even if you completely ignore dovecot at delivery time and write |
| 15 |
the mailbox behind its back, it will update the index as soon as you |
| 16 |
connect via IMAP. I remember wondering about this when I saw such a |
| 17 |
setup and musing how it could possibly work, but it does. |
