[Dovecot] convert old configuration file with doveconf : Unknown setting

[de Lafond Guillaume]

Hi,

It happens when I try to convert this config (with the dovecot 2.0  
beta4 release) :

It does not understand the old 1.1 setting "ssl_disable".

test-mail:/tmp# /usr/local/dovecot2/bin/doveconf -n -c  ./ 
dovecot.old.conf
# 2.0.beta4 (6891d20929ca): ./dovecot.old.conf
doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file ./dovecot.old.conf line  
21: Unknown setting: ssl_disable

-----------------------------------------------------------
After removing all fatal error (comment all settings that are not  
understood), it works.

If needed, I could test against the another other version (latest hg ?).
