[Dovecot] Install from source of dovecot 1.1.2

[Guy]

Thanks for everyone's input. I was already sudoed to root before
running any of the operations so it wasn't that. May have been that
--with-storages error I'd made. I tried your config John, with mods
for my system and besides having to add the dovecot user/group
manually it seems to be running just fine now.

Thanks!
