No, but I found something relevant. I was operating under the mistaken
assumption that dovecot was an inetd plugin, the way imap servers usually
are. It isn't, which means dovecot.conf is not reread as often as I thought.
I need to redo my diagnostics with more dovecot restarts. Is there an
incantation analogous to "postfix reload"?
