[Dovecot] systemd socket and service

[Vasiliy G Tolstov]

Hello. I'm use systemd and have some questions:

1) Why dovecot.socket contains only imap ListenStream?
[Unit]
Description=Dovecot IMAP/POP3 email server activation socket

[Socket]
#dovecot expects separate IPv4 and IPv6 sockets
BindIPv6Only=ipv6-only
ListenStream=0.0.0.0:143
ListenStream=[::]:143
ListenStream=0.0.0.0:993
ListenStream=[::]:993
KeepAlive=true

2) Does dovecot.service required to use dovecot lmtp, or it may be
stoppped (i not often check my mails via client, but have many incoming
mails some time)
