I don't know if this is a helpful forum to raise it, but I would like to
request that SASL be enabled in the default build options for

possible, and so far this is the first where I currently have to build
it myself.
If consensus can't be achieved or there is a good reason not to enable
this by default, then postfix-sasl as a slave port may be a desirable
alternative, which I believe has existed in the past.
+1 on security related options enabled by default
+1 on OPTIONS_DEFAULT matching upstream defaults
-1 on OPTIONS_DEFAULT introducing large dependency sets
I am encouraged to hear there are a couple of different options which
could be explored. As I have gone and built the package, I have
discovered that I do not actually use the SASL option, but the DOVECOT2
option. I now have a couple of questions:
1. What is the difference between DOVECOT{,2} and simply SASL? Is SASL
actually Cyrus SASL? After reading the Makefile, I'm not sure.
2. If I actually want the DOVECOT2 and not the SASL option, is it likely
I am going to be able to (advocate for and) get a binary package from
upstream servers at some point? How can the range of options be handled?
Cheers,
Greg.
