Hmm... why is this on alpha, when the other 1.0.* are on ftp?

Also, may I request that the following msgid be split into three
separate ones?

 msgid ""
+"  -a, --accept-sec-context[=MECH]\n"
+"                    Accept a security context as server.\n"
+"                    If MECH is not specified, no credentials\n"
+"                    will be acquired.  Use \"*\" to use library\n"
+"                    default mechanism.\n"
+"  -i, --init-sec-context=MECH\n"
+"                    Initialize a security context as client.\n"
+"                    MECH is the SASL name of mechanism, use -l\n"
+"                    to list supported mechanisms.\n"
+"  -n, --server-name=SERVICE@HOSTNAME\n"
+"                    For -i and -a, set the name of the remote host.\n"
+"                    For example, \"imap@mail.example.com\".\n"

It would make things much easier for translators, especially when one day
there would be a small change in one of those lines.

(There is no need to split also the other large msgid -- better not, in fact,
because it would invalidate current translations.  But when adding new texts,
or changing existing ones, please think of the translators and make their task
easier.)
