I'm afraid I can't help you much with the debian specific things, I have
no idea how debian handles such parallel installs of multiple PHP
versions.

What I know is that there is a difference when using avelsieve with PHP4
or 5 concerning STARTTLS. With PHP4, no STARTTLS is used, while with PHP5
it is used - and I think that's where changes were made in avelsieve-1.9.8
so you can configure what to do with STARTTLS when using PHP5.

Now, if you have everything installed from debian packages, I think it
should work an if it doesn't, you may contact the package maintainers
about it. We don't know which patches have been included in your avelsieve
package.
