Hello,

I want to monitor dovecot stats, and so I have an exporter process that run 
with limited rights. 
The monitoring user has only access to /var/run/dovecot/stats-reader and it 
works fine.
Doveadm stats dump returns the list of all stats as expected.

But each time I run doveadm stats dump, it logs the following error:

Error: net_connect_unix(/var/run/dovecot/stats-writer) failed: Permission denied

So what is the purpose of the stats-writer socket, and why doveadm try to open 
it to simply dump stats ? 
Is it really something it needs and I should update my user permissions or is 
it a doveadm bug ?
