Updated perl-DateTime-Format-Strptime to 1.67 in F-24 and Rawhide:
Fixed a regression introduced in 1.60; older versions of this library would match dates pretty much anywhere in a string, so "%Y-%m-%d" would match a string like "abcd1234-12-30efgh" - this is probably too permissive, but we definitely want to match on word boundaries so that we match "log.2016-03-31" (GH#3)

Implemented mdtm() server bug fix: some rare servers do (19xx) instead of (20xx) for the year part of the timestamp returned, so implemented autodetection and fix for this server issue
Added undocumented Debug value to suppress printing out the HELP information during login, which got in the way of debugging via ad-hoc perl scripts
Added is_file() to validate if the given name is a regular file
Added is_dir() to validate if the given name is a directory
Fixed bug in t/10-complex.t that made it look like "make test" succeeded when in fact it encountered a fatal error forcing it to skip over all the other deeper tests
Fixed some undef warnings in "uput() test" in t/10-complex.t when talking to buggy windows FTPS servers that says it supports "uput" but handles it really strangely or not at all; now also handles new "?" return value in the strange case
Fixed bug in t/10-complex.t in test_log_redirection() failing a EPSV test when the destination server didn't support this functionality
Modified t/10-complex.t to print the "OK" results to the log file, which makes it a bit easier to associate failures to what's in the log file

Updated perl-Pod-Spell to 1.20:
Hide internals: the POD parser is moved to a private package and the Pod::Spell package now only exposes the public interface; this is a first step towards rewriting the parser using Pod::Simple (planned for Pod-Spell-2.0)
'parse_from_file' and 'parse_from_filehandle' are now explicitly documented (by copying doc from Pod::Parser)
Drop use of File::ShareDir::ProjectDistDir (GH#26)

Since we no longer allow statement continuation across '-' code block lines, implemented support for multiline code blocks

Updated dovecot to 2.2.24:
doveconf now warns if it sees a global setting being changed when the same setting was already set inside some filters (a common mistake has been adding more plugins to a global mail_plugins setting after it was already set inside protocol { .. }, which caused the global setting to be ignored for that protocol)
LMTP proxy: Increased default timeout 30s -> 125s, which makes it less likely to reach the timeout and cause duplicate deliveries
LMTP and indexer now append ":suffix" to session IDs to make it unique for the specific user's delivery (fixes duplicate session ID warnings in stats process)
Added dict-ldap for performing read-only LDAP dict lookups
lazy-expunge: All mails can be saved to a single specified mailbox
mailbox { autoexpunge } now supports wildcards in mailbox names
doveadm HTTP API: Added support for proxy commands
imapc: Reconnect when getting disconnected in non-selected state
imapc: Added imapc_features=modseq to access MODSEQs/HIGHESTMODSEQ; this is especially useful for incremental dsync
doveadm auth/user: Auth lookup performs debug logging if -o auth_debug=yes is given to doveadm
Added passdb/userdb { auth_verbose=yes|no } setting
Cassandra: Added user, password, num_threads, connect_timeout and request_timeout settings
doveadm user -e <value>: Print <value> with %variables expanded
Huge header lines could have caused Dovecot to use too much memory (depending on config and used IMAP commands); typically this would result in only the single user's process dying with out of memory due to reaching service { vsz_limit } - not a global DoS
dsync: Detect and handle invalid/stale -s state string better
dsync: Fixed crash caused by specific mailbox renames
auth: Auth cache is now disabled passwd-file; it was unnecessary and it broke %variables in extra fields
fts-tika: Don't crash if it returns 500 error
dict-redis: Fixed timeout handling
SEARCH INTHREAD was crashing
stats: Only a single fifo_listeners was supported, making it impossible to use both auth_stats=yes and mail stats plugin
SSL errors were logged in separate "Stacked error" log lines instead of as part of the disconnection reason
MIME body parser didn't handle properly when a child MIME part's --boundary had the same prefix as the parent
Updated pigeonhole to 0.4.14:
The address test now allows specifying the X-Original-To header
Implemented the Sieve imapsieve extension and its IMAP counterpart (RFC 6785) as a set of plugins, which allows running Sieve scripts at IMAP activity, rather than at delivery
Adjusted the Sieve ihave extension to allow capability tests to be performed at runtime; this way, scripts can be written that work both at delivery and from IMAP
Implemented support for runtime trace debugging, which works much like the Dovecot rawlog facility
Added a "sieve_user_email" setting that configures the user's primary email address; this is mainly useful to have a user email address available in IMAP, where envelope data is unavailable
Implemented the dovecot-specific "vnd.dovecot.report" extension, which allows sending report messages in the Message Abuse Reporting Format (RFC 5965)
extprograms plugin: Fixed epoll() panic caused by closing the output FD before the output stream
- Made sure that the local part of a mail address is encoded properly using quoted string syntax when it is not a dot-atom
