Lars,

As I explained above, I don't think this bug can make any progress
without the input of the upstream patch authors. The fixes look very
complex to cherry-pick and so risk regression and/or failure to fix the
problem for us if we try to backport the fix from Trusty. It needs
someone already familiar with the code to advise us or for a skilled
developer to spend time becoming familiar with the code. I don't expect
the Ubuntu Server Team to make any further progress on this. Volunteers
are welcome to prepare a backport, though note that the more complex the
backport is, the less likely it is that an Ubuntu developer will be
satisfied that it presents a sufficiently low risk of regression of
regression to existing 14.04 dovecot users.

Note that this bug is believed fixed in Wily (15.10) , so it is just the
Trusty (14.04) backport of the fix that we're talking about here.
