+Plugins Support on AIX
+======================
+
+/How to build Dovecot with plugins supported on AIX./
+
+Tested with:
+
+ * AIX 5.2, VAC 5.0.2 and Dovecot 1.0rc21 to 1.0.13 /(Dovecot 1.1.x does not
+ build with VAC 5.0.2)/
+ * AIX 5.2, VAC 8.0.0 and Dovecot 1.1.1
+
+The Problem
+-----------
+
+ * When you trying to use plugins on AIX you seen error messages like this:
