This problem caused me quite a headache today as well.

I would advise against editing the installation database, but would
suggest the following:

The problem is related to the courier-authdaemon. Instead of removing
the knowledge of the install system (security upgrades will be
ignored!), manually remove the authdaemon:

sudo dpkg --force-remove-reinstreq -P courier-authdaemon

Then continue the upgrade as normal, if necesarry selecting the courier
packages manually once the upgrade has completed.

Works perfectly now here!
