The PID-File seems to be expected under yet another sub-dir of /var/run/dovecot. I wasn't aware that any Dovecot functionalities have become dependent on systemd. Is this discussion simply about the unit file and PID file location for Dovecot under systemd's process manager, or is Dovecot starting to acquire systemd dependencies that will make it difficult to run without systemd in the future?
February 2016 featured book: The Key to Everyday Excellence http://www.troubleshooters.com/key We do not depend on systemd, but unit files are provided and automatically installed if enabled.
That's excellent news, because hell will freeze over before systemd is introduced to official slackware releases
Or Solaris, for that matter.
