Uhm. Just got this from Mark Crispin, who seems to be the main developer of imap-uw these days.

Are there any critical fixes since 2000c? Anything security wise? Why is development snapshots recommended when they are updated all the time? Users usually prefer more stable releases. Are there any plans on moving the imap.tar.Z link to a more fixed release? Regards, -- Anders.

The fact that the imap.tar.Z pointer is at the imap-2001 beta snapshot indicates that there is a reason why I feel that new installations should use it instead of the release version, and that existing installations are encouraged to upgrade. You can therefore infer that there is at least one critical fix in imap-2001. --82I3+IH0IqGh5yIs-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
