 I recently upgraded dovecot to 1.0.13-1.el5.rfx, and my SSL setup was

 /etc/pki/dovecot.

 I understand the whole RFX replaces base packages thing, but shouldn't we
 try to preserve the configuration file locations?  In this case an upgrade
 changed default configuration in such a way as to break things...

 I was also unable to log in via imap; I get:

 dovecot: IMAP(username_goes_here): file_lock_dotlock() failed with mbox
 file /var/mail/username_goes_here: Permission denied

 in /var/log/maillog.  Apparently there's something else I need to change
 here...

 Thanks in advance for any advice with the dovecot upgrade!

I second this motion. I had the same problem twice tonight with the SSL location.

I support such a change. If you have any patches to the SPEC file that have been tested to do what you need, I don't mind integrating them. Beware though that simply changing the path using a configure option may not be sufficient (or it might as well be ;-)).

Testing such a change is crucial here.
