Hrnf, I bet that means it blows up on IPv6 as well, then.

Just say no to PHP if you can help it (unfortunately, that's quite hard to
do in the webmail business :( ).

That said, I will send a message to cyrus-users and debian-user warning
people about the change.

I'd appreciate if you guys could file bugs on packages that use port 2000
(instead of the 'sieve' service name) by default to fix their config files
as well.  Let's reduce the problem space to existing cluster installs as
much as we can, at the very least.
