When I remove the SSL certificate from disk while Dovecot is running, it spams syslog with the following log message over and over:

Dec 6 17:41:41 mikan dovecot: config: Fatal: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf line 12: ssl_cert: Can't open file /etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem: No such file or directory .. Reporting that the certificate went away is fine and useful, but spamming the syslog over and over with hundreds of entries per second(!) is annoying. :(
