Hi,
I just started building dovecot 1.0beta8 on RHEL4.3 based on atrpm.net 
.spec file.

I noted that 3 patches are included in the .src.rpm and wanted to 
discuss them.
I'm interested in knowing if those patches are relevant to all dovecot 
users and
if they can be applied to dovecot.

From:
http://dl.atrpms.net/all/dovecot-1.0-0_10.99.beta7.el4.at.src.rpm

patch: dovecot-1.0.beta2-mkcert-permissions.patch
calls 'chown root.root', is good to have the certs owned by root?

patch: dovecot-1.0.beta2-pam-setcred.patch
is dissables the call to pam_setcred() because there is no other
call to pam_setcred() in order to release the resources

patch: dovecot-1.0.beta2-pam-tty.patch
it add a call to pam_set_item()

I don't to attach the patches to the list, but I can if anyone could not
extract them from the .src.rpm

Many thanks
Oliver
