    Oh no!  I didn't post an update.  It looks like you already fixed
    the problem in mailfront 0.93:  cvm-validate.c:cvm_validate_init()
    now treats empty secrets as no secret, thereby making the cred
    count correct when the cvm module uses an empty CVM_LOOKUP_SECRET.

    Does that mean all cvm clients should behave as mailfront 0.93 does?
    I made the change in cvm in case other cvm clients behaved the same
    way, but maybe the mailfront fix is sufficient (as long as other
    clients do the same).  Are there other clients that use lookup mode?

thanks.
