dovecot: Time just moved backwards by 6 seconds
So this will show up when systems move from daylight savings time to standard time ?
As others mentioned, using ntpd avoids this problem entirely.
Not entirely. If you need to restart ntpd, the time can jump when catching up with 'step-tickers'.

Which is a good reason for starting ntpd before other network services, because once it's running, you avoid the problem entirely.
