Dovecot plugins? additional config? [SOLVED]

[Spectrum]

Hello!

How can i add additional plugins to dovecot? when i add something like fts fts_squat to dovecot.conf, the configuration gets overwritten after some time.
I tried to add changes to the local.conf file, but it has no effect. When dovecot.conf overwrites the config, plugins line is also overwritten..

Earlier I also checked the solutions from this topic:

viewtopic.php?p=32517&hilit=dovecot+config#p32517 (additional_custom.conf)

however, they did not help solve my problem. when I add the plugin line it is simply ignored and takes a line from the main configuration.
Can You somehow direct me how to solve this problem? Mail on imap slowed down terribly for me and from what I've noticed fts
significantly improves the search.. works literally lightning fast after adding that plugin to config file.

I would appreciate any suggestion or attempt to help.

Hello

the additional_custom.conf is no longer the valid solution.

Instead, have a look into /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

There you will find the following line:

Code: Select all

# Include cunstom configurations.
# Put your own custom settings in the following file, it will remain untouched by KeyHelp updates.
!include_try local.conf

-> So just put your custom configuration into the local.conf and reload/restart dovecot.

Thank You so much!

i tried on local.conf but forgot to use " { } " in:
protocol imap { mail_plugins = .... }

now it works!
