This patch (thanks for that!) seems to implement a useful feature at<br>
first glance.<br>
<br>
However, I find that it is (in its current form) unacceptable for<br>
inclusion in the cyrus-pop3d-2.2 package (or the -2.3 package that is<br>
currently worked on) for two reasons:<br>
<br>
1) It implements a new behaviour/feature and should thus be discussed<br>
with upstream.<br>
2) It is really a hack, especially since it can't be disabled. This<br>
means it would conflict with otherwise perfectly legal behaviour of<br>
having logins named like user-001 user-002 etc. So if you would want<br>
this to be included, you (or someone else) would have to make sure the<br>
feature could be disabled by a configuration file switch.<br>
<br>
I suspect that the latter would also be asked for by upstream if they<br>
were to include the patch.<br>
<br>
The pkg-cyrus-imapd team is in general willing to include patches if<br>
they (in no particular order, especially not importance):<br>
1) are as non-intrusive as possible (which is almost true for this patch)<br>
2) Don't change behaviour in non-compatible ways (which this one does,<br>
unfortunately) or can be enabled (i.e. default is disabled) by a<br>
configuration switch (which might be relatively easy for this patch)<br>
3) Have proven to work for production environments at two (at the very<br>
least) different sites.<br>
Exceptions can be made if there is good reason to of course.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>

PS: This is just my personal opinion, not the official position of the<br>
cyrus-imapd packaging team.<br>
