You should use !include_try instead. See https://doc.dovecot.org/ configuration_manual/config_file/#including-config-files

Yes, I'm familiar with !include_try, and it clearly works fine. This report is about an inconsistency between the documentation for !include (not !include_try) and the behavior. The documentation for wildcards with respect to !include states that "It’s not an error if wildcards don’t result in any matching files."

Please consider updating the documentation to match the actual behavior.
