Re: dovecot problems

Hi!

Seems that in r125, an old patch was applied. Could you replace this line by

$ThisLine =~ s/^\w{3} .\d \d\d:\d\d:\d\d (?:[^\s:]* |)//;

please? That's what's the current debian package does with this line (AFAIR, 
the problem was that depending on the log target (syslog vs. dovecot direct 
logging), the hostname is included - or not.
