Thanks for reporting! I believe this is a bug introduced in the -6.1 NMU and fixed in -7: the ipopd package wrongly grepped for imap entries instead of pop ones, so removed all pop entries instead of disabling them and then failed the package install. Later installs sets up default pop entries based on the debconf choices made. Hmm - oddly enough the -7 package has not shown in sid (I have records of it being uploaded approx. 20 hours ago). I'll do a -8 with another adjustment - please yell if the problem occurs again with that newer package.
