Hi there. I've been using Dovecot for quite some time now but I just started using Let's Encrypt certs. Since LE certs are renewed automatically without user intervention I'm wondering if I will need to restart dovecot after that renewal...
A reload will suffice.
Thanks Reio for your quick answer.
Then is it that reload mandatory? What I need to know is if I dovecot can cope with that certificate renewal without the need of any sysadmin intervention or automated script after that renewal.
You can add a POST_HOOK to Certbot (or whatever you are using) to reload Dovecot after certificates have been renewed. No need for manual intervention.
