there is none. i just get a prompt back, but that service doesn't
start.

i listed the output from mail.err above -- it's the single line
referring to "SetBannerAndCapability", that's all. that line is
printed upon every attempt to finish configuring imapproxy.
and the "dpkg" status shows that that package is still only "install
ok half-configured". although, since this merely an "optional"
package, shouldn't i be able to take it out or ignore it for now?
email does seem to be working so perhaps fixing this package can be
pushed down the priority list for now.
