Thx for your both feedback, and yes, it is EOL but as you mentioned in
35+ weeks. O.K. Redhat never did a dovecot update to the current version
and as a lot of customers we think the update policy for some software
should be changed too to support more modern versions of "core" server
services. But that's not a dovecot topic ;)

That dovecot offers still  EE build for free is great, but a road map on
what the future subscription plans are would be nice; e.g low cost fee
for just the repos, higher fees for support etc. That's what I missed.

    Regards . Götz
