dovecot 2 on 11.10 - mysql db access is sortof missing

[www.dwalliance.com]

According the to the build parameters retrieved with dovecot -a mysql is supported. You can start it with the mysql option but when the process tries to access mysql it says mysql is a bad option.

Sorry I purged the dovecot-common and downgraded before making this report.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.

Ubuntu 11.10 introduced a new dovecot package - dovecot-mysql - to support this functionality.

Any chance you did not have this installed?

Marking 'Incomplete' pending you response.

Thanks

I don't suppose you have the details of the error message you where
getting?

If not I'll try to reproduce in precise to see if we still have an issue.

Hmm - it does sound like it. Would you be able to provide a redacted
copy of you dovecot/mysql configuration? or an overview of how you are
using mysql with dovecot at least?

Thanks
