Dovecot v2.0 requires vpopmail v5.5. Although I heard that it crashes with it. You can make it compile with older versions by just commenting out that line.

I'm really considering dropping the support for vpopmail completely. It's been nothing but trouble. I can easily understand why Courier dropped support for it. It should still work via checkpassword interface, which at least doesn't change.
