Thanks. Still no luck, though. I put the patch in, but still only get
        Jun 25 19:26:11 kelvin couriertcpd: exec: No such file or directory
(I checked, that the path is applied to courier/courier.c and the  
binary is updated). Strange.

Anyhow, what is this courierctl.start about? I never had to create  
those earlier. I'm only using
        % pkg_info | grep courier
        courier-maildir-0.53.1 Courier maildir utilities
        courier-authlib-0.58nb2 Courier Authentication Library
        couriertcpd-0.53.2nb1 Courier TCP socket and TLS servers
        courier-imap-4.1.1nb2 IMAP server for access to maildir-style mailboxes
