Hi

Debuging was completly disabled - after enabling debuging I was quite
surprised to find, that upgrading courier-imap with emerge, changed my
email server configuration, folder containing user mail was changed, and
location of directive defining it was moved to other file.
Before upgrade - MYSQL_MAILDIR_FIELD Maildir - was defined in
/etc/courier/authlib/authmysqlrc
After upgrade my /etc/courier-imap/pop3d-ssl configuration has changed
(the following was added):
# Hardwire a value for ${MAILDIR}
MAILDIR=.maildir
MAILDIRPATH=.maildir

The curios thing is, that only /etc/courier-imap/pop3d-ssl was affected,
/etc/courier-imap/pop3d was untouched - so unencrypted mail was working.

Problem is currently solved - but I wonder, did I really miss such a
thing doing etc-update ? It didn't happen before - I think :)

Krzysztof Marciszewski
