I had a look at the backports-page of debian. There are now some
backports, even for 64bit:
http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=dovecot&searchon=names&section=all&suite=lenny-backports

So we need to change this too...

how to add the backports-thing to your system is described here:
http://backports.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=instructions

If you are running Ubuntu 9.04 ($ lsb_release -sir) this should work as
their packages are based on debian lenny.

When you have any questions, dont hesitate to ask. There are many howtos
about backporting on the internet. One example is this (its in german,
but you should understand it according to your domain name...;):
