      Please keep list communications on list.
If your doveconf -n doesn't reflect the changes you are making, then you
are editing the wrong file.

The doveconf -n did not show this setting, which I suppose it is keeping

doveconf -a shows all DEFAULT settings

doveconf -n shows your custom/current settings being used by the running
dovecot system.

What does doveconf -n show?
