[Dovecot] dovecot.conf an <TAB> chars

Hi,

I just wanted to "beautify" my dovecot configuration file and as one of
the first comments suggests whitespaces and <TAB> should be completly
ignored but that doesn't seem to be the case, e.g.:

postmaster_address<TAB>= some at address.de

results in an configuration error as the postmaster_address is not set.
Using just a space or replacing the <TAB> char with space chars resolves
the problem.

This is with dovecot version 1.0.3 on Debian and FreeBSD.


Greetings,
  Sascha
