[Bug 347881] Re: dovecot-imapd incompatible with ntpdate use

[Andreas Olsson]

I just reproduced this exact issue in Jaunty (dovecot
1:1.1.11-0ubuntu2). That is; I set my clock to run ahead, restarted my
network which triggered a ntpdate. Hence my clock was set back to the
correct time, leading to dovecot shutting itself down.

"dovecot: Fatal: Time just moved backwards by 420 seconds. This might
cause a lot of problems, so I'll just kill myself now.
http://wiki.dovecot.org/TimeMovedBackwards"

Today dovecot-common Suggest the package ntp. Perhaps it could at least
be upgraded to a Recommends?

** Changed in: dovecot (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed
