I don’t understand your reply. I am running Ubuntu 14.04 in Docker image now, 
but there is no support for BLF-CRYPT in 14.04.

As for openbsd, Docker images can be based on any Linux distro that is 
available in the Docker Hub. OpenBSD is not a Linux distro and I would have to 
run it inside a VM which isn’t acceptable.

See https://hub.docker.com/explore/ <https://hub.docker.com/explore/> for a 
list of Official Repos that are suitable to use as base images for building 
Dovecot such as ubuntu, debian, centos, alpine, oraclelinux, opensuse, etc.

I suspect that most glibc crypt() implementations don’t support BLF-CRYPT and 
that is one reason that PHP includes fallback BLF-CRYPT function so PHP users 
can generate Blowfish password hashes without worrying whether PHP is running 
on Linux or not.
