Hi
Dovecot is trying to open a socket, and procmail is trying to execute
spamc, You should be able to fix these issues using audit2allow.

Following a hard drive corruption I have reinstalled the latest
version of CentOS and all current patch files.
For most applications I selected the default options. By doing this
I expected that the packages would play nice with one another and I
could customize as necessary.
Setting SELinux to enforce I encountered all sorts of problems - but
most were resolvable, save for Dovecot, Procmail (for spamc), and an
odd one with Apache.
Given that these were all installed with the CentOS install
defaults, I can't believe I am the only one with these issues but
finding a solution has not been self evident. Hoping someone here
can help.
For Dovecot I get the following:
SELinux is preventing dovecot (dovecot_t) "create" to <Unknown>
(dovecot_t). For complete SELinux messages. run sealert -l
e1b070ab-586a-4c5a-befe-b6a46b9ab992
For procmail I get the following:
SELinux is preventing procmail (procmail_t) "execute" to ./spamc
(spamc_exec_t). For complete SELinux messages. run sealert -l
0a554689-4948-4edf-9964-dddbfe6a2492
SELinux is preventing sh (procmail_t) "read" to ./spamc
(spamc_exec_t). For complete SELinux messages. run sealert -l

For Apache it's even more strange - When started I get:
Syntax error on line 283 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
DocumentRoot must be directory
But it is a directory, has the correct permissions and I have even
run chcon -R -h -t httpd_sys_content_t /web/www/ in an effort to
correct the problem. I run a virtual server too, and in trying to
find a fix for this that may be a problem - but first things first.
All the other issues I had I could resolve when I ran the specified
"sealert" tag and followed the suggested instructions - but those
above don't budge. When I go to the fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-
fq-fc5 site to take on making a local policy module I am quickly
getting lost . The option to simply disable SElinux with respect
to Apache, Dovecote or anything else is suggested - but not
something I see in the GUI window, and I have not figured out how to
do it from the command line.
Again, because these are default packages, I hope that someone else
knows how to resolve these.
With respect to the to reports from SELinux regarding Dovecot and
promail, here is a bit more info:
