Ah, well, that's a different question! Stopping dovecot won't kill the
processes with actual logins. -> killall imap-login

It does kill everything. I don't know if there's anything that Dovecot can do about the "Address already in use" problem. It seems that the OS is keeping the listener alive for some reason longer than the processes exist. I've had the exact same problem with some simple test programs and haven't figured out how to avoid it (even cleanly closing all the connections didn't help. although I just thought that perhaps using shutdown() might have, guess I'll have to try the next time). Maybe google would find something about this problem, I haven't looked.
