I am trying to use 2 instances of Dovecot on the same server so I can have a Director managing my connections, everything appears to be working, but I can not use doveadm to control my 2nd instance, but doveconf seems to work fine.
I have noticed the same thing. It seems that doveadm ignores -i. "dovecot" works with -c /path/to/other/dovecot.conf, but it too ignores -i.
We got the idea to try -i <instance_name> from http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Doveadm/Instance , but "doveadm help" itself does not show a -i.
I have stopped and started both my instances so the config running is what is in the config file, but when I use -i Director with doveadm it uses the other instances config.
And this is a big problem for trying to use "doveadm director" commands when the director instance uses the nonstandard paths. I haven't found a way to do that yet! "-c /path/to/other/dovecot.conf" didn't work.

Currently on 2.2.5, about to switch to 2.2.6 EE. It seemed like it worked back in 2.0.9 before upgrading.
