Izak, Thanks for your message.
I'm copying it to the exim-dev mailing list because I have retired from my job and am no longer actively working on Exim. Hopefully, somebody on the list will take it up. If you like, you could submit a bug report via the Bugzilla. While I did play around with the dovecot code a bit, I did not originate it, and as a non-Dovecot user, I was never fully "up" with all the requirements.
