Re: Alpha release of Maia Mailguard 1.0.5

Wowza! I was able to pull the last security/maia port for FBSD. Given 
that it's needed some serious attention since it's introduction (about 
18 years ago), boy-oh-boy is it UGLY! (and this is my fault.) I do have 
a working port for the latest code, but it needs serious attention. Give 
me a day or two to re-write this son-of-b***h. I'll likely need some 
help from the serious ports gurus as I'm unsure how to handle some of 
these changes in the inclusions. With any luck, I'll have something worthy.

Quick question: Would you rather me provide the temporary FBSD port as a 
pull request/branch for your current work on Github or should I make it 
something completely separate? I'm fine with either. I just wanna make 
it as easy as I can for others until there's solid enough code to submit 
to the FBSD ports tree.
