The experience says: it's useless lack of time to report something to
you. Michal (and me) had some conversations (about pine locking world
writable, e.g.) before with no reasonable results - so why contact you
first? It seems like you love the things you made too strong to react
for any issues related. Using pine for almost three years, I still
need to patch the any new version. People who used imap3d and ipop3d
said something similar about them.

Your development team occupates position which doesn't seem wise. I
myself can't see any point of reason to inform you about patches
available, but I can see the direct reason to inform bugtraq
subscribers.
