Sorry, I just read that UPDATING entry again. Cyrus is only provided to
Dovecot if Postfix is present. I do not have Postfix present. So, I
think that I do need to install Cyrus explicitly.
So, back to my original question, why does "pkg autoremove" want to
uninstall Cyrus when I explicitly installed it from the port?
Thanks,
Graham

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

Postfix in combination with dovecot doesn't require cyrus, since some
months dovecot support is always provided by postfix.

Thanks for that Mathieu - I didn't know about that one.
However...
When I run it, it tells me that it's going to remove my cyrus-SASL
port.
I installed that (via its port) so that I can use SSL/TLS
authentication
on my Dovecot server (installed via the dovecot2 port). So Cyrus
is not
a build dependency of anything - why is it offering to remove it?
Thanks,
Graham
