Hello,

I am using Simon's RPM for development.
I would like to remove "Cyrus v2.3.3-Invoca-RPM-2.3.3-4" and replace it with
"IMAP4 server"
These words, will be prompted in console mode, in which I want to suppress
them.

I know there may be no use in security issue, but better than nothing.

so, Which files I should touch?

Thanks
Patrick
