[OX User] New OX6 packaging

Hi,

I recently discovere the OX6 Debian packaging -- great!

Questions:
 * the default install (as per the wiki walkthrough) runs on MySQL.  Is 
PostgreSQL still supported?

 * which IMAP server is suggested?  Currently, (with a commercial OX5 
install) I'm on cyrus, and while it works I'm personally not that happy 
with it (needs too much babysitting, backup/restore is a pain.)  Is one of 
the others good enough to replace it?  courier?  dovecot?  (Most important 
is that we can use acl to share some folders between users; sieve 
integration with OX is obviously also important.)

 * Data migration:  Any documentation around on how to move our existing 
database (OX5, PostgreSQL and user database in LDAP) to the new set up (I'd 
expect the schema has changed...)

 * SyncML: we currently sync (very buggy, though :-(  to several Treo 650 
and Nokia E61.  How far is SyncML (free or commercial) support for OX6?

thanks in advance
