I am currently running rc18 at my site with no problems (Solaris 10,
mbox format, INBOX NFS mounted from another Sun box, all other mailbox
and cache files on local ZFS disk, no plugins).  With rc19, people
have problems with the read/unread/deleted flags -- lots of complaints.
I have seen it myself.  Yes, this is rc18 -> rc19 IMHO.
