Hi, I don't have any accounts. To be honest, I'm a very casual pkgsrc
user rather than a developer, hence I don't normally get involved in
committing code changes. I'm trying to nudge pkgsrc developers to update
unmaintained version of this package, as I've done some of the work
already.

I can share the new package with pkgsrc developers who may be looking
into updating mail/dovecot2. If there is no interest, then never mind,
I can always build it for my own needs from source.
