Thanks -- I feel really silly now. Unfortunately, something still seems to
be amiss. I compile dovecot with the patch, but the server refuses to
start with:

dovecot: Oct 04 07:37:01 Info: Dovecot starting up
dovecot: Oct 04 07:37:03 Error: login: Authentication process 0 doesn't
exist
dovecot: Oct 04 07:37:03 Fatal: fcntl(F_GETFD, 0) failed: Bad file
descriptor
imap-login: Oct 04 07:37:03 Fatal: Master sent reply with unknown tag 0
imap-login: Oct 04 07:37:03 Warning: Error sending handshake to auth
process: Broken pipe
imap-login: Oct 04 07:37:03 Fatal: fd_send(-1) failed: Broken pipe

This is from the Website version with the patch applied. I doubt it would
help, but I'd like to try the CVS version (with all the patches), but it
doesn't appear to have a configure or install.sh script when I check it
out of the CVS. Shall I use these scripts from the released version, or is
there another way to build the CVS version?

Thanks again for all the help with this.

Best,
Tim
