Does that mean I need this rc2 to work with PostgreSQL 8.3? I'm planning
an upgrade from 8.1 to 8.3, are there any other problems to expect?

That's how I read the situation: For pg-8.3 you need 2.2.11-rc2.

I've been running 2.2.10 with Postgres 8.3 for a while now, and I
haven't noticed any problems.

Might I be missing something, or was this issue just related to RC1?

Maybe you're just not using the following imap commands:

x uid search 1:* senton <date>
x uid search 1:* sentbefore <date>
x uid search 1:* sentsince <date>

since those are the only commands that query the dbmail_datefield
directly. There are cases where the datefield table is used to sort
results, but those were not affected by this bug.

All my users use Thunderbird, which doesn't have an easy-to-find date
sort function.  Fortunately, it seems we've just missed whatever issues
cropped up.

I happen to use mutt with it, and though I don't typically sort messages
by date, I'll make sure I don't do so before the next release.

Thanks!

Colin

Is the release going to happen soon? I'd like to try itl, because:

I seem to have a bug in 2.2.10, but cannot say much: Last week once, and
today again, imapd stopped responding. No log warning, nothing.
Processes are running, telnet to port 143 opens the tcp connection but
no greeting message appears. It's stuck forever. And, as this message
appeared only twice in two weeks, I cannot run a trace 5 as this would
be tons of log. Is this a known bug that's fixed in 2.2.11rc?

Known bugs are fixed and logged as such in the changelog:
http://www.dbmail.org/mantis/changelog_page.php

So check the changelogs - but don't count on it. Anyway, no logs: no glory.
