Package: dovecot-common
Severity: wishlist
Dovecot doesn't necessarily have to be run for imap/pop3, it can also be
used only to provide the dovecot-auth service to external programs (like
Postfix for SMTP Auth, or the LDA). This is done by specifying
"protocols = none" in the conf file, but the init script doesn't
recognize this configuration. Very simple patch for the init.d file is
attached.
