 Nothing to worry about -- we already use the final post- rootexploit
version of the imap server; if you'll take a look at the freebsd-ports
mailing list archive you'll see a thread with the "imap-uw security hole
-- please update port" subject which was the "firestarter" :) Observe that
MASTER_SISTES for this port begins with Steve's homepage -- there you'll
find the "FINAL" version of imap-uw, dated just 1 week before the newly
released 4.2 and some time after the bugtraq advisory & the Pine 4.00
"warning" from the Pine Team.

 I'm just sorry we couldn't have the "lastest greatest" imap-uw package
for the 2.2.7-RELEASE CDROM... my fault...
