---[another forward from redhat.com's security mailing list]---

Serious security problems have been found in all versions of IMAP shipped
with Red Hat Linux. If you have enable the IMAP server on your workstation
(you have to edit /etc/inetd.conf to do this; if you have never done this,
you are not vulnerable to these problems), please upgrade to these
new IMAP releases immediately.

Thanks to everyone who helped find these problem, Olaf Kirch in particular.
