>Description:
squirrelmail-vlogin-plugin-1.3.9 has introduced a number of issues that require resolution:

1) It introduces a specific version dependency on squirrelmail-compatibility-plugin >=2.0.5
   This port, and other squirrelmail-*-plugin ports depend silently on squirrelmail-compatibility-plugin
   because of the way that port patches the main squirrelmail install.

2) The upstream maintainer of compatibility admits there could be problems with other plugins that haven't been
   kept current. I have noticed a problem with secure_login myself.

3) The squirrelmail-compatibility-plugin maintainer is unable to update his port (should he choose to in the
   present circumstances) until later this week.
>How-To-Repeat:
N/A
>Fix:
Please can we revert squirrelmail-vlogin-plugin to version 1.3.8 until the described issues are resolved.
