Dovecot as an IMAP server

Dovecot was optimized since the beginning to work as an efficient IMAP server. Dovecot supports a lot of IMAP extensions.

Some of the extensions need to be explicitly enabled:

• METADATA

• COMPRESS

• SEARCH=FUZZY

• SPECIAL-USE

• NOTIFY: Set mailbox_list_index to yes

• URLAUTH: Set imap_urlauth_host and mail_attribute_dict
