I have problems installing the daemon dovecot-core, dovecot-mysql dovecot-imapd dovecot-pop3d

to install dovecot-core, dovecot-mysql, install it without problems is the version (2.1.7-2 ~ bpo60 +1) of both packages, now wanting to install dovecot-imapd dovecot-pop3d (version 1.2.15-7) breaks the dovecot-core, dovecot-mysql, apparently must be the same version all packages.
Yea, of course you must use the same version for all packages. Upstream there is only one package for dovecot. It's part of Debian's philosophy to split monolithic packages into a bunch separate packages.
Debian Wheezy, installs without problems but installs the version (dovecot-core_2.1.7-2 ~ ppa12.04 +1 _i386.deb) all packets are the same version.
This no Debian version schema but from Ubuntu 12.04. I don't know if they work correct on Debian.
What is the correct version for Debian squeeze?
Stock Squeeze ships Dovecot in Debian version 1.2.15-7. Squeeze Backports offers version 2.1.7-2~bpo60+1.
To install Dovecot 2.1 for Debian Squeeze:
% sudo apt-get update
% apt-get -s -t squeeze-backports install dovecot-imapd dovecot-pop3d dovecot-mysqlThe '-s' switch simulates the installation and works without root privileges. If you get no error and apt shows to install version 2.1.7-2~bpo60+1 repeat the command with a preceding 'sudo ' and no '-s'.
