- Update author's email address in $DESCR.
- Update $PKGREQ to depend explicitly on Python >= 2.1.3, and not just >= 2.1
- Document required value of $MAIL_GID for Exim4.
- Substantial rewrite of $PKGINSTALL:
  - Simplified layout.
  - More extensive error checking.
  - More expressive and user-friendly output.
- Substantial rewrite of $PKGDEINSTALL:
  - Simplified layout.
  - More expressive and user-friendly output.
  - Delete %%MAILMANDIR%%/data/last_mailman_version in DEINSTALL, and restore
    it in POST-DEINSTALL if the entire Mailman installation has not been
    removed.  This file is required by Mailman's update script (run as part
    of the installation procedure) to update active mailing lists.
  - Delete the errorlog if it is the only existing logfile.  This will
    finally allow the mailman port/package to be completely and cleanly
    deinstalled when there are no active lists or updated configuration.
- Bump $PORTREVISION, with apologies to those tracking the port.

It should now finally be possible to update a Mailman installation with
active mailing lists simply by deinstalling the port/package, and
reinstalling a later version (or by using portupgrade(1)).  There are still
no guarantees, though, and a backup is thorouhly recommended.
