Thanks for that, olli. I didn't understand how I'd missed the fact that Dovecot now included=20 Cyrus. So I had a look at /usr/ports/UPDATING. Searching for Dovecot=20 shows a mention of it in the entry at 20160228. However, that's entitled=20 "AFFECTS: users of mail/postfix", and I don't use Postfix. I think that=20 Dovecot should have its own entry in UPDATING for that change too.
