Hi Kirt,
Right in that case, the installation of Dovecot has somewhere created a
certificate with "imap.example.com" as the common name (CN.)
I'm afraid I cannot help further as I don't use SSL in Dovecot, however
what I'll say is lookup how to create a certificate in OpenSSL. Perhaps
someone else can advise how to create and configure a certificate to use
with Dovecot.
