it is a dovecot-bug to whine about ANY no longer
present mount-point even if has nothing to do
with mail at all

"no longer available" is relative

if you do not mount any partition to a mount-point
it ends in a folder on the root-fs, the only harm
in case of /tmp would be unmount it while services
are active withour restart them
