Re: How to update main system?

iRedMail installs packages via ports tree, so you can update packages with normal port tools, like 'portmaster'.
Be careful, Some software has big changes between big versions, for example, Dovecot-2.0 has some big changes and incompatible with 1.2, so it will stop working. Others are fine.
