I found that there's a commercial Dovecot repo, which we're more than happy to pay for access to. Thanks, Timo!

I'm not very experienced in building Source RPMs and we're in need of a Dovecot RPM for version 2.2.12 for CentOS 5. It seems that the ATRPMs repo maintained by Axel Thimm hasn't seen much activity lately and the task of updating a source RPM is more than I have time for as a busy developer who does systems admin on the side.
Could anybody recommend another repo where there would be the latest Dovecot binaries? Or perhaps tell me of any gotchas and catches which might arise if I go ahead and build 2.2.12 from source over the RPM I currently have installed (2.2.10)? you only need to replace the tarball and the version in the SPEC and rebuild the package - for monir updates you don't need anything else if upstream has no broken release strategy, dovecot's is fine
i am building dovecot the last two years without any SPEC change except version and changelog - but you won't be happy with my stripped down SPEC following our infrastructure (no configs etc.)
