In these cases, is there any way that I can now do the equivalent of the

Try 'dpkg -P' or 'dpkg --purge' if the latter is easier to
to track this down? Can I turn on some tracing on
the gateway to see what it's trying to do and maybe why it's not
working? I took a look through the existing log files and didn't see
anything obvious.

Cyrus is probably the best IMAP server out there, and I'd recommend you get
used to it. It is quite a step forward from the UW-IMAP server...
Additionally, you can place a .procmailrc file in your home directory, which
