The new dovecot.conf documentation is ambiguous whether setting:

2.4.x is not able to use any 2.3.x config(s) at all.
You must first migrate to the new 2.4.x config format (following the
update guide) before attempting to use 2.4.
What I did was left production server alone, and built the new 2.4
configs on a develop machine to minimize production downtime.
good luck
Thank you!
That clears up the ambiguity, and I'll need it :)
