Dovecot IMAP server configuration guide
Enabling IPv6
Dovecot imap server supports IPv6 by default. It can be disabled at compile time, with the --disable-ipv6 option of configure.
Configure dovecot with IPv6 support (default)
configure --enable-ipv6
Recompile and install.
Confgure without IPv6 support
configure --disable-ipv6
Recompile and install.
Running dovecot in IPv6 mode
Dovecot runs in standalone mode, without the need for inetd. To enable IPv6, add or change
listen = [::]
in the appropriate section (general, imap or pop3) of the configuration file (dovecot.conf). This will enable IPv6 on all interfaces. Specifying address will bind IPv6 support to specific interface.
