Has CentOS stopped distributing dovecot updates via yum?

The current version there is 2.2.10 - which is now over two years old.

The link on: http://dovecot.org/download.html <http://dovecot.org/download.html> to “RPMs for Fedora and RHEL/CentOS” http://packages.atrpms.net/dist/el6/dovecot/ <http://packages.atrpms.net/dist/el6/dovecot/> is also broken.

Would be great if someone could please point me to alternative locations for authentic RPMs

There are no "authentic" RedHat RPMs (for RedHat Linux) with versions newer than 2.2.10 available. Red Hat Linux (or if you use CentOS) releases most packages with Long Term Support in mind. This implies that mostly no new, or bleeding edge versions of, for example Dovecot will be released.

So if you want "very authentic" and newer versions of Dovecot as RPM package then you should get a subscription from Dovecot Oy or check this recent conversation for "authentic" CentOS 5/6/7 RPMs out: https://www.mail-archive.com/dovecot@dovecot.org/msg64887.html
