    FastMail is running 2.3.10 on all our production systems now, and
    there are no regressions that I'm aware of. There are still some
    bugs that also existed in 2.3.9, but we aren't patching against
    any "bugs" rather than "things that don't work how we would prefer".

    The two big "new" bugs that we found in the 2.3.10pre3 codebase when
    we rolled that out into production had their fixes accepted back
    upstream before the final 2.3.10 was cut.

    That said, we're seeing slightly more skiplist corruption than
    previously and have not yet determined the cause. We're backing
    up a text-dump of our mailboxes.db files once per hour just in
    case - but it's highly probable that the issues are due to
    something odd we're doing with long running cyr_dbtool processes.
