Mark, I'm not that well versed in Debian's package manager. But isn't it possible to take the configs for the "official" Debian Courier-MTA package, add an RFC2045/RFC2047 patch and create your own package. In most cases that will automate the handling of new versions with just a little overhead in effort. Perhaps the Debian maintainer of the Courier package would be willing to incorporate such a patch into the official Debian package.

Exactly. I was, as a matter of fact, advising Mark in a private letter (hm, I can't recall why I didn't made it a community letter...) to contact the debian maintainer of courier and suggest him/her to include a patched version of submit in the distribution.

I deal with very much the same basic problem. It is, however, quite possible to maintain your own set of a debian packages and still use the full power of apt. This is what I do with courier-imap (what a coincidence, another courier component [;)] , with patches applied for top level folders and certain homerolled client "adaptions". I choose to do this because, in an overall perpective, courier-imap is simply the best choice for me, patched or not.

Creating your own patched package, by the way, is indeed quite easy in debain. Here's how it goes:

apt-get source courier-0.36.1 (this is the current version in woody) cd courier-0.36.1 patch -p1 < <your-patch-file> fakeroot debian/rules binary
