[Dovecot] trouble with ssl

[Mike Matz]

Tom,

I had to overwrite the OpenSSL installation in the base.  In FreeBSD, you 
could use -DOPENSSL_OVERWRITE_BASE with your make commands.  Dovecot 
always used the base openssl package, which was the older version, which 
sounds like the same problem you're having.. Again I don't know anything 
about NetBSD =\
