Courier has changed the format of its POP3 uid list in the past, which 
would cause that, but I don't believe it's changed anytime recently... 
In fact, pop3dserver.c doesn't seem to have changed at all between the 
two versions that you're running.

Try getting a uid list manually.  Remove the courierpop3dsizelist file 
first, then telnet to one of the new systems on port 110 and log in:

$ telnet localhost 110
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1).
Escape character is '^]'.
+OK Hello there.
USER gordon
+OK Password required.
PASS XXXXXXX
+OK logged in.
LIST
+OK POP3 clients that break here, they violate STD53.
1 4429
...
.
QUIT

Save the output of the session.  Then remove the file again, and do the 
same thing with one of the old servers.  Compare the output of each 
session.  They should be exactly the same.

If that wasn't set, then it doesn't need a setting.  Don't set it! :)
