The dovecot2 port will be removed, I hope ;-)

This is what it has

name                dovecot2
replaced_by         dovecot
epoch               20060722
# This is actually the old dovecot version
version             1.2.17

And thus it is reported as ‘port dovecot2 with version 1.2.17’

albus:dovecot2 sysbh$ port list dovecot2
dovecot2                       @1.2.17         mail/dovecot2
dovecot2                       @1.2.17         mail/dovecot2

Which is also confusing as it seems to say that port dovecot2 will install dovecot 1.2.17
