This may be a silly question but how to correctly stop dovecot and be sure that it's possible to start it again?
kill -TERM `cat /var/run/dovecot/master.pid` doesn't work well. I have imap-login processes staying arround and occupying port which leads to Fatal: listen(0.0.0.0, 993) failed: Address already in use when trying to start again 2s after stopping. -- Arkadiusz MiĆkiewicz PLD/Linux Team arekm / maven.pl http://ftp.pld-linux.org/
