I missed that. Sorry. Had to check twice.

I wish to see security updates (+deps) ahead of full 5.3 release still 
(I see some of them like firefox, but there is xulrunner update even 
this does not seem to be a security update - did I missed something else?).

Also better verion numbers probably:

RH: squirrelmail-1.4.8-5.el5_2.3.src.rpm
CentOS: squirrelmail-1.4.8-5.el5.centos.3.src.rpm

Should be probably: squirrelmail-1.4.8-5.el5_2.3.centos.src.rpm
