# Dovecot Input Plugin
This plugin uses the Dovecot [v2.1 stats protocol][stats] to gather
metrics on configured domains of [Dovecot][dovecot] servers. You can use this
plugin on Dovecot up to and including version v2.3.x.
> [!IMPORTANT]
> Dovecot v2.4+ has the old protocol removed and this plugin will not work.
> Please use Dovecot's [Openmetrics exporter][openmetrics] in combination with
> the [http input plugin][http_plugin] and `openmetrics` data format for newer
> versions of Dovecot.

## Global configuration options <!-- @/docs/includes/plugin_config.md -->
In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support
additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to
modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc.
See the [CONFIGURATION.md][CONFIGURATION.md] for more details.
[CONFIGURATION.md]: ../../../docs/CONFIGURATION.md#plugins
## Configuration
```toml @sample.conf
# Read metrics about dovecot servers
[[inputs.dovecot]]
## specify dovecot servers via an address:port list
## e.g.
## localhost:24242
## or as an UDS socket
## e.g.
## /var/run/dovecot/old-stats
##
## If no servers are specified, then localhost is used as the host.
servers = ["localhost:24242"]
## Type is one of "user", "domain", "ip", or "global"
type = "global"
## Wildcard matches like "*.com". An empty string "" is same as "*"
## If type = "ip" filters should be <IP/network>
filters = [""]
```
