Hello, Does anyone have updated postfix and dovecot rpms either in a repo or personally made? I'd like to update to dovecot 1.2.4 and postfix 2.6.5. Thanks. Dave.

dovecot 1.2.4 is available from the atrpms repository (probably in testing or bleeding), regarding postfix I have no idea if even Simon does not have 2.6 packages on http://postfix.wl0.org/ - but he has instructions which might help you build it yourself.
I'm curious as to why you need those versions.
Cheers,
Ralph

Ummm. By adding stanzas with "testing" or "bleeding" instead of "stable" to that file? Do read up on what enabling those means, though. Take a look at yum priorities, or just include the dovecot packages.

I was forced to upgrade Dovecot on my Centos 4 server. With about 400 users checking email via POP3 I was having weekly issues where Dovecot would leave a blank line at the top of peoples mail spool (in mbox format I think?), which would generate errors in their email client. Upgrading to the later atrpms.net version resolved that problem but left me with a dovecot service that crashed every few months. A script to restart dovecot when it crashed was preferable to manual intervention require more often to remove blank lines from users mail file though so I've left it as is.
I suspect the initial problem may actually have been the email clients fault (disconnecting too early after deleting messages perhaps?), but at the end of the day I'm the one blamed for it and was able to accommodate it so I did something about it!
