Port is still 143

We are using dovecot as proxy for handling more auth-mechanisms
as dbmail supports and sasl-ath for postfix

dbmail is listening on 127.0.0.1:143
dovecot on public-ip:143 with forwarding to 127.0.0.1

Its a little bit tricky but works very well and as benefit
it makes attacks very hard because somebody needs a
exploit which reaches dbmail trough dovecot

another benefit: dovecot can handle imaps/pop3s on dedicated
ports as well as starttls
