Hello,

For those of you using this imap server, here is a small patch to
obfuscate the version numbers for both imap and pop servers.  We could not
find any documentation on how to disable the banner version number, so we
wrote a small patch to take care of hiding this.  This patch was diff'ed
for imap-2001a-18drac, but can be easily modified to support another
source base.  Thanks

Jason
