------------------

I dear Debian team, I was working on courier to build my new POP3 server and when I read man pages in courierpop3d (man
courierpop3d) I observed a line about: "see the authlib(7) manual page". In my case, i was interested by this link
because I searched info about the authentication used by courier :o)

By when I type:

man authlib

or

man 7 authlib

or

man courier-authlib

The man doesn't found page about authlib... I think that man page is missing in the package or the courierpop3d man page
contain wrong info !

Upstream has confirmed that this is a typo and that it should reference
authlib(3), which is shipped in the courier-authlib-dev package.

This will be resolved in a future upstream update.

As this will be fixed by the next release of courier-pop, I am assigning it to
that package.
