Hmm, maybe I've been blind about those plenty of security holes, but
AFAIK all of those have been closed in an adequate time, see eg. the
announcements in the openwebmail forum:

http://openwebmail.org/forum/viewforum.php?f=1

The only thing that needs to be done as usual is to keep it up2date with
the upstream releases.

Or do you have other information?

I know that the project is currently in a migration phase, but thats
nothing extraordinary for an OSS project, IMHO. See this link for
further information:

http://openwebmail.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2084

... as you see, I really happen to like this project as we never had a
single issue with it ... but I am afraid that this is becoming more and
more off-topic for this ML now 8-)
