It's already available (2.29.92) in experimental and shouldn't change
much before 2.30. Few things needs to be done: debian/copyright updates,
a NEWS.Debian warning about IMAP+ backend, but nothing too dramatic.

HMh, that might be a bit more problematic for the Xfce side, since I
won't be available at all for packaging task from march 23rd to apr 16th
or something. CC: ing pkg-xfce in case somebody can step up for that.
