I've had this concern for a while, but from the change log, I haven't seen any changes that really affect my installations. I would guess that Sam is about ready for another major release and would like to have a port of 0.42 when released. I personally am of the opinion that Yarema <yds@CoolRat.org> has done a great job of porting courier, not trivial IMO and maintaining it. I have never had an issue when updating. The only reason that I was able to change to courier was because of his taking months to develop and get the port committed. I haven't seen anyone else offering to take on the maintenance responsibilities either. So, I, personally, hope he will continue. I wounder if Yarema is on this list and could give us some idea of the plans for mail/courier.
