Hi!

There is a difference when building from sources from git, and from source tarball. The README describes building from source tarball.

Please see https://dovecot.org/releases/ for source tarballs.

We have also put the page in place, see https://doc.dovecot.org/installation_guide/dovecot_community_repositories/compiling_source/
