[Dovecot] Weird Issues with latest nightly (pre-rc23)

Just updated one of my proxy boxes to the latest nightly (20070217),
restarted the dovecot process and got a bit of errors showing up for each
pop3/imap connection.

Feb 19 11:14:00 marbella dovecot: pop3-login: Login: user=<user1 at host.com>,
method=PLAIN, rip=209.33.217.218, lip=204.17.177.60
Feb 19 11:14:00 marbella dovecot: POP3(user1 at host.com): Set pop3_uidl_format
in config file
Feb 19 11:14:00 marbella dovecot: child 33684 (pop3) returned error 89


Feb 19 11:14:04 marbella dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<user2 at host.com>,
method=PLAIN, rip=204.17.177.50, lip=204.17.177.60
Feb 19 11:14:04 marbella dovecot: IMAP(user2 at host.com): mbox: Can't create
root mail directory /dev/null/mail: Not a directory
Feb 19 11:14:04 marbella dovecot: IMAP(user2 at host.com): MAIL environment
missing and autodetection failed (home /dev/null)
Feb 19 11:14:04 marbella dovecot: child 33753 (imap) returned error 89


On the pop3 errors above. Why should I have a pop3_uidl_format in the config
file for the proxy?  This was working fine on rc19.  I do have a
pop3_uidl_format on my storage boxes.
Same with the imap section.  It should just proxy over (and is on rc19), the
proxy shouldnt have to know about the mail directory.

Am I the only one seeing this?  Or have I missed a config change that is
required?

thanks,

Cassidy
