One thing I'm not so fond of with Simon's RPMs is that the 2.2.1-BETA
package doesn't have any indication that it's the beta (even when the
original tarball does: "cyrus-imapd-2.2.1-BETA.tar.gz"). The package
name-version-release should IMO rather be something like
"cyrus-imapd-2.2.1BETA-2" or "cyrus-imapd-2.2.1-0.BETA.2".
