Package: courier-mta
Version: 0.57.0-1
Severity: important

Upon an upgrade of courier-mta today, it overwrote my esmtp PAM file without 
asking!

During installation, the following line was displayed;

"Installing new version of config file /etc/pam.d/esmtp ..."

Too bad I already had a customized esmtp file.  This cut off my ability to 
submit new mails via authenticated relay over the MSA port.

If my memory is correct, this isn't the first time this has happened, though 
I'm not positive.



Expected behavior is for the install script to ask before overwriting a 
user-modified configuration file.  I'm pretty sure this is in policy somewhere.
