yes, it shows a summary what is configured, but not that there is a
problem with one of the settings;
only the 'restart' of the dovecot service generates a error in the
logfile which point you to the problem, a 'reload' sets the configured
value but does not generate a error;
also not when clients want to connect via imap - you see in the logs
only that the client trys to connect several times until it hits the
'mail_max_userip_connections' and the imap processes hang until you kill
them hard manually;

dovecot reload does not show a problem, only a stop/start generated the
entry in the logfile....
two days for a stupid typo....
dovecot -n should also show the problem...
