We have identified several upstream issues that we have put in the Release Notes (see the known issues section) and for most we have testing packages to fix them.

I was afarid I'd hit the max on /. Turns out it worked flawlessly. My mother OTOH, has a 256kbps line down and 300-400M will take a while to download... She doesn't have any space-constraints though on / as I had. Win some, lose some... All in all, CentOS 5.2 seems to work fine. My web server and sshd is still up and chugging along.

Suggestion: before rebooting, edit grub's config to default to the old kernel. Then reboot, selecting the new one. If it fails, when the machine is booted again, it will be in the old stuff. If it works, you can then edit grub's config again to default to the new one.

The new config file was written to /etc/dovecot/conf.rpmnew (as expected) for me, so your modified original doesn't get overwritten. I can see no difference between the 5.1 and 5.2 config files wrt the 'listen' directive. Mine was, and still is, set to the default [::] and still works fine. Further, I have IPv6 disabled on the server. I have tested on both i386 and x86_64 platforms and each are working fine both with and without ssl/tls. Did you restart the dovecot service after it was updated? (I'm not sure if yum update does this automatically or not when updating a daemon service that is running).
