Hmm. I suppose I could change Dovecot master so that if no imap/ pop3 processes have been created yet, it would silently ignore the
clock move.

Also it might be an idea to just restart dovecot instead of
completely stopping it. If this happens to often in a certain time
interval it still could be stopped to avoid too many restarts in a
loop if there is an error situation somehow.

http://wiki.dovecot.org/TimeMovedBackwards bottom answers this. A
restart isn't much better than just ignoring the time change.
