branch. There are a number of changes, see the ChangeLog for details.
Note that in the meantime, 2.2.x is the new stable release series, bringing
many new features e.g. LDAP authentication, header caching, Sieve mail
filtering, ... but I'll leave that update to a more experience DBMail user.

* improved performance on postgresql when opening mailboxes (imapd)
by avoiding SUM() calls.
* Bug 177: compile fails on FreeBSDs getopt.h
* Bug 164: No more mailbox full. Mail bounced with user unknown.
* Bug 181: Error in SQL using SuSE Linux 9, max value for int8 is

* bug 162: dbmail-pop3d zombies galore..
* bug 213: pop3d sends SIGKILL to init's process group

by oom or queue gives up
2.0.6:
* corrected reported version (closes#247)
* fixes fatal error in process pool
2.0.7:
* Removed all unsafe code from the signal handlers. This should
mostly benefit FreeBSD users which may have suffered from
unreliable behaviour in the process pool code.
* Added 'ON UPDATE CASCADE' to all foreign key restraints in the
MySQL (InnoDB) and Postgresql create_table files.
* POP3 AUTH command no longer returns list of supported authentication
mechanisms when issued without arguments.
And always is defined as share/examples/rc.d
which was the default before.
This rc.d scripts are not automatically added to PLISTs now also.
So add to each corresponding PLIST as required.
This was discussed on tech-pkg in late January and late April.
Todo: remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR uses in MESSAGES and elsewhere
and remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR itself.
Dbmail is the name of a group of programs that enable the possiblilty
of storing and retrieving mail messages from a database. Currently
MySQL and PostgreSQL can be used as database backends.
DBMail is made up of several components. A normal MTA (Postfix,
SendMail, QMail, Exim) is used for accepting messages. The MTA
hands the messages over to dbmail-smtp, using a pipe interface, or
dbmail-lmtpd, using LMTP (Local Mail Transport Protocol). These
programs take care of delivering the message into the database.
Messages can be retreived from the database using dbmail-pop3d,
using the POP3 protocol, and dbmail-imapd, using the IMAP4Rev1
protocol.
The whole email is stored in the database. That includes attachments.
The DBMail programs do not have to touch the filesystem to retreive
or insert emails. User information is also stored in the database,
so users do not need an account on the machines DBMail is running
on.
