Hmm. So Debian stable is switching from Dovecot v1.0 -> v2.1? Maybe it would be worth mentioning this somewhere.
No, previous stable had v1.2.15, so I guess there won't be any mass moving from v1.0 to v2.x.
I've just newly put Debian Stable on a machine. Stable does have 1.2.15, as you say. I've enabled squeeeze-backports, which also allows me to install 2.1.7 (dovecot-core 2.1.7-7~bpo50+1, as I write).
(I've not installed either yet, still checking how to bring the real-user maildirs across from 1.0.15 without losing the metadata, so that all the clients (meaning the human ones) don't have a shock at seeing xx,000 'new' mails. Recently discussed on the list, so plenty of advice.)
