The core plugins whose version was attached to GS's were reseted to 2.0.0. 2.0.0 was chosen as reset version for plugins because it is higher than the one that was set by inheriting GS version. Furthermore, it's a major change from prior plugin versioning system thus it also makes semantic sense. Justification for version bump: == GS == 9a4ab31f26 1.19.0 |

The IMAP plugin allows for StatusNet to check a POP or IMAP mailbox for
incoming mail containing user posts.
Installation
============
addPlugin('imap', array(
'mailbox' => '...',
'user' => '...',
'password' => '...'
));
to the bottom of your config.php
Also, make sure:
$config['mail']['domain'] = 'yourdomain.example.net';
is set in your config.php
Create a catch-all account for your domain, and use this account with this
plugin. Whenever a user sends a message to their personal notice posting
address, the message should end up in this mailbox, and then the plugin daemon
will pick it up and post the notice on the user's behalf.
The daemon included with this plugin must be running. It will be started by
the plugin along with their other daemons when you run scripts/startdaemons.sh.
See the StatusNet README for more about queuing and daemons.
