You can get packages from http://xi.dovecot.fi/debian/, if it helps. The HTTP
API should not suffer from the username problem.
Thank you. I just used ppa:patrickdk/production, but probably will try
the xi.dovecot.fi packages.
The question is, which of these locations is more trustworthy in the
sense of 'production ready'?

I'd consider xi.dovecot.fi more reliable myself.

Not having installed any of the two, I can say, as a Ubuntu user:
In ppa "/etc/init.d/dovecot" is a symlink to "/lib/init/upstart-job"
While xi packages places its own init script there.
Curiously, dpkg on installation seems not to unlink the existing one
first, but overwrite it with the new contents, thereby destroying
upstart -- This happened to me last year, I noticed early :)
Last checked in 2.2.22 xi package as seen from the contents, did that
change?
Possible workaround: remove the stock init file link ahead of installation?
