I wasn't aware that any Dovecot functionalities have become dependent
on systemd. Is this discussion simply about the unit file and PID file
location for Dovecot under systemd's process manager, or is Dovecot
starting to acquire systemd dependencies that will make it difficult to
run without systemd in the future?

Thanks,
