Here's my run file, which only uses the imap binary from dovecot, and does connection control with tcpserver, auth by imapfront-auth, and SSL using a modified stunnel (Scott Gifford's chroot/proxy patch):

#!/bin/sh

eval $(/usr/local/bin/envdir ./runenv /usr/bin/env)

exec 2>&1 # Ensure that PRNG is adequately seeded. [ -s ./ssl/seed ] ||
/usr/local/bin/envuidgid stunnel
/bin/dd if=/dev/urandom of=./ssl/seed bs=1k count=1 exec
softlimit -m "${ulimitdata:-20000000}"
tcpserver -d

-c "${concurrency:-20}"
-x imap.tcprules.cdb
