I also use the varios patches from University of Athens since about 2005. As far as I can say they are pretty stable :-) Please have also a look at the other patches at http://email.uoa.gr/projects/cyrus/ Especially the autosievefolder-patch is quite useful. the two quota-patches are address some problems I didn't encounter in real life, but they seem to be reasonable. the autoreply-patch is trivial :-) all these patches apply clean after 0090-upstream...dpatch but some of the debian-patches have to be adjusted. -- Jörg Friedrich There are only 10 types of people: Those who understand binary and those who don't.
