dbmail

We proudly announce the availability of DBMail 2.2.5.

This is mostly a maintenance release aimed at fixing the remaining problems in the IMAP code. After three release-candidates it is safe to say this is the most stable release to date.

Some noteworthy changes:

• Much improved UTF8 handling in the message handling code
• Several IMAP protocol errors were fixed
• Some really serious memory leaks where removed
• dbmail-export was enhanced to allow fine-grained message selection and post-export deletion
