There is also a dovecot.conf in the docker image, which you can either read out
or swap out for testing.
for example, to read out:
docker run -p 1143:143 -p 1993:993 dovecot/dovecot:latest
CONT_NAME=$(docker container ls --filter="ancestor=dovecot/dovecot:latest"
--format='{{.Names}}')
docker cp ${CONT_NAME}:/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf /tmp/d.conf
or to swap out:
(assuming you have 'dovecot.conf' and other support files in a local
directory)
docker run -p 1143:143 -p 1993:993 \
-v ./:/etc/dovecot \
dovecot/dovecot:latest
I found the latter very helpful for syntax checking.
By the way the dovecot binaries are at '/dovecot/bin' in the Docker image, so
you can use those with a running Docker instance if needed. eg
docker exec ${CONT_NAME} /dovecot/bin/doveadm config imap
Cheers
