FWIW, It can't be unblocked because of #693114.
Please open an "unblock" bugreport against release.debian.org when icedove
is ready.
If you like I can change the severity of the bug but that's about it. As I
wrote in that bug report, there is no solution that will work for everyone
because the root of the problem is that in Debian, mailboxes in /var/mail
are owned by group mail and this is not going to change in the near term
and perhaps not ever. So I merely documented the situation. I don't know
what else I can do to make it "readier".

pigeonhole is a third-party addon to dovecot which is patched into the
source. Pigeonhole 0.31 which is what is included in that patch is
recommended by its author due to reported segfaults in the previous
version. If we don't add it now, we will only have to add it in a
point-release anyway (or a security update if the segfaults should prove
exploitable.)
