mailfront-imapfront-auth-dovecot - Wrapper to use with mailfront imapfront-auth with dovecot

Vendor: ChoonRPMS
Description:
mailfront-imapfront-auth-dovecot is a program to modify the MAIL environment
variable according to dovecot imap requirements in order to access users
mail storage.

Dovecot uses colons as internal field separators; however, since v1.2rc6, it
allows colons occurrences via escaping (as : → ::). Before passing such
mailbox paths via MAIL environment variable to dovecot imap, this wrapper
performs such escaping.

From original MAIL environment variable:

/home/USERNAME/MAILDIR/mail:box:user

To:

maildir:/home/USERNAME/MAILDIR/mail::box::user

Or:

mbox:/home/USERNAME/MAILDIR/mail::box::user
