Hi! There is a sample configuration file installed to /etc/dovecot during installation process, based on doc/dovecot.conf.in.
The .ext.conf files are no more needed as they are inlined into the configuration itself, and we decided to drop the conf.d example files. We still use some in debian/rhel packaging to enable certain protocols upon installation.
