I had a little difficulty with keeping dovecot up at first. It's very

As you can see, I'm not using supervise for dovecot. I'm not sure
there's really a good reason to do so. (when in Rome...)
Eric,
So, you create the file /etc/rc.d/init.d/dovecot, add it as a service
using 'chkconfig --add dovecot' and start it at boot-time using
'chkconfig dovecot on' ?
Yep. I think the rpm does that automagically.
If so, what does you /etc/rc.d/init.d/dovecot file look like? And, as a
consequence, I suppose, I would remove /var/qmail/supervise/dovecot/run
Right. Let me get the 2.0.9 rpm installed, and I'll get you the init
script for it.
How do you implement the logging mechanism, through qmailctl and
/var/qmail/supervise/dovecot/log/run ?
No, I just use the 'stock' logging. /var/log/dovecot.log, with logrotate
(config for which is in the rpm).
