Cyrus IMAPd 2.4.0 Released

[Ken Murchison]

I am pleased to announce the release of Cyrus IMAPd 2.4.0.  This
release should be considered production quality but hasn't yet been 
widely tested.  Major changes in the release are the following:

- All databases are now skiplist by default
- Charset subsystem has been rewritten - Unicode 5.2 and UTF-8 in Sieve
- Core mailbox handling code has largely been rewritten
- Replication code largely rewritten
- Several LEMONADE extensions have been implemented
- Added support for marking QoS on traffic

refactoring the code has been instrumental in making this release possible.
