Don't take all of this as gospel; it's all to the best of my
recollection:

mailman wasn't included because of:

a) the general level of customization required for install
b) the past security history of it

openldap-2.1 was not included I believe because of security
reasons.

dovecot isn't fully cooked yet; the author IIRC is still working
on the index format some, and it doesn't support things like GSSAPI.
