[Dovecot] Dovecot with Virtual Domains

[Edmonds Namasenda]

Charles, I am new to this v2.*
I was used to a different layout for v1.* and that is why I am here.

Basically, I am starting from scratch.
I have untarred v2.0.2, ran *./configure --with-sql=yes --with-mysql* , *
make* , *make install*.
Before after that, I could find my files in /usr/local/etc/ which is not the
case now. The files are in /usr/local/etc/dovecot/ and
/usr/local/share/doc/dovecot/

I have copied the *example-config*s to /usr/local/etc/dovecot/ but literally
every change I make as of v1.* is not valid. I wish to use protocals IMAP &
POP3 then authenticate with shadow and passwd for system users and mysql for
the virtual users.

There is not much I can do or lie to you.
