Yes - there are new settings in the config files for 3.0.x (the ones in /usr/local/etc/courier-imap/*-dist) that are necessary for it to work, in particular MAILDIRPATH to tell it where to find your mailboxes... You need to merge the new config files into your existing ones (or just copy them over if you don't have any local changes to the configuration). This was mentioned in the CVS commit log when the port was upgraded to 3.0.0 - arguably it should have gone in a pkg-message file as well so more people actually noticed it when doing the upgrade... Of course it's always a good idea to check over the configuration files for any port you upgrade - there are often changes it's useful to know about even if they don't prevent the software from working. I can also recommend a freshports.org account - the weekly email listing all the changes to the ports on your machine is very useful.
