That could be useful, but I'm not really sure what would be a good way
to implement it. Maybe if some file exists
(/var/run/dovecot/no-connections or something?) and Dovecot master
process notices it, it stops accepting new imap/pop3 connections? The
file would then be created by some script you're running that checks the
load. And I think that file should be deleted when Dovecot is started,
so that people don't wonder why Dovecot isn't working.
