RE: Health check curl example

How do I check the standard script then on this port 5001 from the command line?

This one of alpine linux also does not have it yet bash-5.0# dovecot --version 2.3.7.2 (3c910f64b)

Yes. The passthrough option is rather new.

inet_listener health-check { 
port = 5001 
} 
} 

bash-5.0# /bin/health-check.sh 
HTTP/1.1 200 OK 
Connection: keep-alive 

OK

Your health check script should implement HTTP protocol. Then you 

can use passthrough mode and use cURL.

The provided script does not speak HTTP.

I am not understanding how this health check[1] script should work. 

From 
the commandline it works fine when I type a PING I get a PONG. But 
how 
do I do a curl to this 5001 port? 

Tried something like this: 

bash-5.0# curl http://localhost:5001/ 
curl: (56) Recv failure: Connection reset by peer 

bash-5.0# curl http://localhost:5001/PING 
curl: (56) Recv failure: Connection reset by peer
