atime is updated everytime I do a backup which is once a week.

I imagine I would need to put this in pop3 section as well?

>#!/bin/sh
>touch $HOME/.dovecot-lastlogin
>exec /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap

Can I just touch the dovecot.index instead?

Also, I am bit confused.  Why must the script exec imap?  I imagine
$HOME will contain the path to the home directory of the pop3/imap
user that just successfully logged in?

THanks
