I do, and have done so for some time, well before I got involved in Extras - I
needed a good IMAP server that understood maildir and wasn't happy with
UW-IMAP+patches. This software probably taught me more about RPM than anything
else. :-)

(In fact I got asked about Courier F7 packages today in email - I'm still
downloading the release via torrent so builds are a way off yet).

I figured I'd review this one since I'm already familiar with the package and
it's always good to compare how others approach a fairly complex piece of
software from a packaging perspective. 

The package as it stands is in good shape and I'm happy to approve it if you can
fix up the init (standard policy to not start on boot, which I can certainly see
a benefit in even for this package) - the courier_release macro can go as
un-needed cruft for our purposes (it would make it more readable IMO) but I'd
really not look at this as a blocker.

I wouldn't worry too much about it diverging from upstream's - I'm sure it'll
get plenty of eyes to keep it trim (and I stand by my offer to comaintain it,
even for EPEL/CentOS as a recent job change has renewed my interest in these
releases) and most of the differences are really fairly small.
