     Just thought it would be worth mentioning, you might want to keep an
     eye
     out for traffic from this company...

     Might want to make up your own mind, or maybe someone has more
     information, but enough of a red flag, that thought it warranted
     posting
     on the list.

     Not sure yet if it is Dovecot, or the SSL libraries they are
     attempting
     to break, but using a variety of SSL/TLS methods and connections...

They are not interested in dovecot per se.  They scan for TLS vulnerabilities,
mostly.  

     Anyone with more information?

See also shadowserver.org, census.io, stretchoid, etc. All of them allegedly
reputable, all of them supposedly with opt-out mechanisms, and all of them are
blocked for not asking permission.
