(21K) mail-mta/postfix/files/postfix-2.4.7-CVE-2008-2937.patch

I'm reporting this bug since repoman issued a warning about a file bigger than 20KiB.

Big files should be moved to mirrors, or otherwise stored outside the main cvs tree, since the cvs/rsync tree is downloaded by all users, whether they'll use your package or not.

Thank you,
Diego

Fixed in CVS.
