I'll throw my weight behind adding mkcert.sh to the package.  The
rationale is that if you google for "dovecot ssl" you'll be presented
with the dovecot.org wiki pages that describe using mkcert.sh.  So
naturally you're going to want to try that simple approach and will fail
on Ubuntu.

Simple self-signed certificates are perfectly fine in a homebrew
network.  When I'm out on the road, I just want an encrypted tunnel to
the imap server (and smtp server) on my home network.  I trust my own
signed certs, so I don't need anything else.  The lack of mkcert.sh in
the Ubuntu package for dovecot makes life harder.
