Public bug reported: dovecot-postfix installs a configuration file in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/01 -dovecot-postfix.conf.
Users should expect that creating another file in this directory whose filename is lexicographically greater -- for example, 99-myconf.conf -- will override this file. However, due to a bug in dovecot 1.2.9, the include files are parsed in reverse order. Evidently this bug was fixed in dovecot 2.0 in http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.0/rev/e25b0ecfc758. However it was apparently not backported to dovecot 1.2 (see http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.2/file/659f72bf92ae/src/lib- settings/settings.c). So, a backport of this bugfix might be in order.
