Bug#515534: (no subject)

[J.M.Roth]

After upgrading to lenny my saslauthd was broken too.
I'm attaching the diff between my old defaults file and the one coming
with the new version, which I'm using now.

So I guess the problem was NAME=... not being there. I have seen no
comment/warning about that in apt-listchanges or whatever.
