Emerge -uvDa --newuse world now gives me this on attempting to update 
mailbase.


+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Do you want me to merge these packages? [Yes/No] yes
>>> emerge (1 of 2) net-mail/mailbase-0.00-r9 to /
 * Checking for possible file collisions...
 * //etc/pam.d/pop3 exists and wasn't provided by mailbase
 * //etc/pam.d/imap exists and wasn't provided by mailbase
 * //etc/pam.d/imap4 exists and wasn't provided by mailbase
 * //etc/pam.d/imap4s exists and wasn't provided by mailbase
 * //etc/pam.d/imaps exists and wasn't provided by mailbase

 * Those files listed above have to be removed in order to
 *  install this version of mailbase.

 * If you edited them, remember to backup and when restoring make
 *  sure the first line in each file is:
 * # Provided by mailbase (dont remove this line!)

!!! ERROR: net-mail/mailbase-0.00-r9 failed.
!!! Function pkg_setup, Line 50, Exitcode 0
!!! Can't be installed, files will collide
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status 
message.



Where did these packages come from if not from mailbase?

How do I fix this wothout thrashing my e-mail system?
