I know this, and indeed I do this myself. I wasn't talking about your 
RPM-SPEC file, I was talking about the numerous dovecot config files 
that are installed in a new default installation.

It is very confusing for people new to dovecot (I didn't have any major 
problems, because I'm not new, but installing it fresh gave me a new 
perspective).
