I use a configuration file for dovecot:
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
'((nnimap "FreeOffline"
(nnimap-stream shell)
(nnimap-shell-program "/usr/lib/dovecot/imap -c ~/.dovecot-free")))
With the following contents:
protocols = imap
log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S "
mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir/free
protocol imap {
mail_plugins = fts fts_lucene
}
plugin {
fts = lucene
fts_lucene = whitespace_chars=@
fts_autoindex = yes
}
I vaguely remember having to switch from "-o" to "-c" for some reason I cannot
recall. If that does not work, I'd say the problem might be in your offlineimap
configuration. Did you check the contents of your "Maildir-free" directory?
As a side question, does anybody have performance problems with this setup?
(on-demand dovecot process) I was wondering if having an always-running daemon
with all my mail accounts would be faster (although I don't know how to do
that).
Cheers,
Lluis
