It appears that starting a couple of days ago, newly issued/renewed
Let's Encrypt (LE) certificates will be signed by R12, R13, E7 and E8,

announcement at:

A consequence of this change that I figured out today, and which people
should be aware of:
I had an internal mail delivery problem that appears to have begun when
my LE certificate was renewed on August 31. Postfix continued to work
fine, but Thunderbird could no longer retrieve mail using IMAP via
Dovecot because it did not get back a trusted CA.
The solution to this problem turned out to be to modify my LE deployment
post-hook to also deploy fullchain.pem into /etc/postfix as well as
cert.pem, and then change dovecot's ssl_cert configuration to use
fullchain.pem instead of cert.pem.
