Hi, I think it would be great to have latest Debian testing release of
dovecot (if not the last upstream one, which is 2.0.18), because of
important bug fixes:

Last upstream release only :

v2.0.19 2012-03-15  Timo Sirainen <tss at iki.fi>

	- IMAP: ENABLE CONDSTORE/QRESYNC + STATUS for a mailbox might not
	  have seen latest external changes to it, like new mails.
	- imap_id_* settings were ignored before login.
	- doveadm altmove did too much work sometimes, retrying moves
	  it had already done.
	- mbox: Fixed accessing Dovecot v1.x mbox index files without errors.

Last Debian testing release:

v2.0.18 2012-02-12  Timo Sirainen <tss at iki.fi>

	+ DIGEST-MD5 authentication supports authorization id now.
	  Patch by Yubao Liu
	+ Added instance_name setting which is used to prefix Dovecot
	  processes in ps output.
	- LDA/LMTP: Sending a large mail via submission_host or via LMTP proxy
	  may have caused a hang.
	- Fixed dbox + mail_attachment_dir + zlib problems.
	- Login processes weren't logging all intended messages with
	  auth_verbose=yes
	- IMAP: THREAD REFS sometimes returned invalid (0) nodes.
	- IMAP: CONTEXT search return option wasn't handled at all.
	- dbox: Various error handling fixes.
	- snarf plugin: Keep the mailbox locked during snarfing to avoid
	  duplicates.

v2.0.17 2012-01-06  Timo Sirainen <tss at iki.fi>

	+ Proxying now supports sending SSL client certificate to server with
	  ssl_client_cert/key settings.
	+ doveadm dump: Added support for dumping dbox headers/metadata.
	- Fixed memory leaks in login processes with SSL connections
	- vpopmail support was broken in v2.0.16

v2.0.16 2011-11-17  Timo Sirainen <tss at iki.fi>

	* VSZ limits weren't being enforced for any processes. On server with
	  large mailboxes you may now see errors about it if the limits aren't
	  high enough. To fix them, either increase individual service {
	  vsz_limit } values or simply increase the default_vsz_limit setting.
	* Proxying: If using ssl=yes or starttls=yes with a hostname (not IP)
	  as proxy destination, require that the certificate matches the given
	  hostname.
	* LMTP: Changed default client_limit to 1. This should improve LMTP
	  throughput with default settings.
	* dsync: Quota is no longer enforced (i.e. dsync can't fail because
	  user is over quota).

	+ Added "auto" mail storage driver, which can be used to autodetect
	  mailbox location and format. This behavior is already the default
	  for empty mail_location setting, so this change is mainly useful for
	  shared namespace's location setting.
	+ checkpassword: Export all auth %variables to AUTH_* environment.


We have two choices: Import latest upstream release (with latest fixes) or latest Debian release. But in both cases, we should resynchronise pigeonhole patches with Debian in order to have latest pigeonhole fixes too.
