Wesley,

Something along the lines of the note you used for the dovecot port:

AFFECTS: users of mail/dovecot and mail/dovecot-sieve

dovecot-sieve has been updated to a new implementation compatible with 
  dovecot 1.2.x.  For details of what this means please see:

P.S. Wesley, many thanks for always grabbing the dovecot* PRs and 
getting them in.
