Well, I didn't but it seems to be the default example config (i.e its in 
auth-system.conf.ext, not my local.cf).

I commented it out, but now I get
"auth: Fatal: No passdbs specified in configuration file. LOGIN mechanism needs 
one"

What am I missing to make it look in /etc/dovecot/users ?  My local.cf came 
from a known-good server so I don't understand why it hasn't implemented the 
changes that need to be done on this new one ?   What parameters am I missing ? 
  I'm lost and exhausted by struggling with dovecot these last few days.
