Sorry but I don't follow your line of reasoning.

In those examples, the file 10-ssl.conf has SSL certificates by
default.

But I'm not proposing that the default 10-ssl.conf has SSL enabled
anymore. Everything I ask is that we avoid useless prompts in
upgrades, which is what this bug is about, and it's also what policy
says we should do.

So: Why can't dovecot-core create the *current* file (the one *not*
having SSL enabled) in the postinst instead of using UCF? Please don't
tell me that you already tried that, because you have not.

This would solve the problem of UCF asking the same question over and
over again on upgrades. Why can't you do that? Using UCF for a file
that everybody should change does not make any sense!
