In that case you can use nmap to see who's answering on DHCP.  It seems 
to work pretty well, at least for my simple case.  You decide whether 
it's easier than wireshark or grepping the logs.

nmap -sU -p67 10.211.63.0/24

You can also use netcat to send a DHCP discover and see who answers with 
wireshark (especially if you keep a DHCP discover payload handy). 
netcat won't show you replies in this case but it might be easier to use 
than dhclient.

Sorry, I didn't mean that imapsync is junk.  The package that you're 
using is junk.  That dependency is correct in Debian.  Here's a nickle, 
kid.  Get yourself a better distro. :-)
