Description Marshal Newrock 2006-12-04 14:24:17 UTC
Beginning in dovecot-1.0-rc3, the following is supported:

"SIGHUP: Reload settings. Restarts the auth and login processes. If the updated config file is invalid, it will stick with the old in-memory settings."

(from http://wiki.dovecot.org/QuestionsAndAnswers#head-045b7deb282e66e87576aac2b83ac085b2390847)

Attached is a patch to the ebuild, adding a reload function.
