This was also my issue with it (as I just upgraded today). It makes
getting upgrades past the bigwigs a little more difficult when you don't
have all day to handle an upgrade like this, unforseen consequences are
accounted for, but not on this scale. Results should be predictable. At
least one-click release kept working, end users can get whiney if you
change things like this on them.

Hi all,

I just discovered that the upgrade not only set the server wide default
for Anti-Spam from Disabled to Extreme, which I could cope with due to
watching this list, but it overrode all domain level settings to be
Extereme as well!!

It appears to have done this as instead of using the existing key values
they've added another key (DomainMailboxesSieveLevel) which now controls
all settings and if it doesn't exist it defaults to Extreme.  IMHO it
should default to Normal and as part of the upgrade should have chosen
the least agressive of the existing levels.

NOTE:  Even worse, this did NOT effect the sieve behavior so it's
possible that some domains have gone from Disabled/Delete to
Extreme/Delete as a consequence of the upgrade and are having legitimate
email deleted.  :(

It would be nice if changes of this nature were CLEARLY documented with
a rather large warning in the upgrade notes.

Oh well, I know what I'm working on fixing with the rest of my day.
