 I see that postfix-policyd is missing but I can't agree for dovecot and rsync. Seems to be a quite recent upload for dovecot at least because when I first read your mail and looked I did see the missing dovecot.

 I am willing to prepare a postfix-plicyd stable rebuild, if it isn't appearing on the security server within the next some hours.

 That's rather something you'll have to ask the DSA and/or security team and not on a porter's list. :)

 Building on your host system might give you a bit more of worries at times, especially if you have installed backports or unofficial packages. I sugguest to build in a clean chroot, like with cowbuilder (cowdancer package) or pbuilder.

 So long,
