That's best reported with information (at least version numbers of
software involved, relevant logs, and info about which server is having
problems) to the package maintainer and/or libressl developers.

It is difficult to correctly build against openssl on a system where
the OS and all other packages use libressl. If you mix the two (i.e.
headers from libressl and library from openssl or vice-versa, or linking
against libraries that pull in "the other" library than you're using -
the obvious example in the case of Dovecot would be ldap/mariadb/pgsql
libraries) then you can expect it to fail, possibly in exciting ways.
