What is the "official" way to pronounce Dovecot? Is there a meaning to the word? A background on why you chose it?
It's a real english word, pronounced as such.
Dovecot \Dove"cot\, Dovecote \Dove"cote\, n.
A small house or box, raised to a considerable height above
the ground, and having compartments, in which domestic
pigeons breed; a dove house.
It was suggested by Bostik (Mika Boström) in IRC when I was still calling it just "imapd" and asking for naming ideas.
