I've got a signed certificate now, and since I installed it Dovecot dies when trying to launch with this error in the log file:

I know the passphrase my cert needs. Where can I tell dovecot that?

I don't that answer, but you can create a version of your private key with the passphrase removed, e.g. via:

openssl rsa -in whatever.key -out whatever.stripped-key

and use the stripped version (it will ask you for the passphrase). This is not necessarily politically correct though.
