patches/packages/dovecot-2.3.21.1-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz:  Upgraded.
  This update fixes security issues:
  A large number of address headers in email resulted in excessive CPU usage.
  Abnormally large email headers are now truncated or discarded, with a limit
  of 10MB on a single header and 50MB for all the headers of all the parts of
  an email.

 These are needed to build Chromium. Thanks to alienBOB.

++See the config file beneath this directory:  conf.d/10-ssl.conf
++
++For a script that will install self-signed certificates, see mkcert.sh in

++This will prevent usernames and passwords from being sent until a secure
