Hello Alexander,
You may HUP the dovecot process, as explained at:
http://wiki.dovecot.org/RunningDovecotStarting with 2.0, there's also the "reload" argument:
Usage: dovecot [-F] [-c <config file>] [-p] [-n] [-a] [--help] [--version]
[--build-options] [--log-error] [reload] [stop]HTH, Axel

You have "restart" in your subject line but "reload" in your messag; I'll answer for both cases.
To restart Dovecot, you could probably do:
/etc/init.d/dovecot restart
To reload Dovecot, you could probably do:
/etc/init.d/dovecot reload
Some systems might let you do:
service dovecot restart service dovecot reload
Regards,
Bill

As a windows-user? - Impossible
As a un*x-user you would not ask this question.

P.S. Who might find sarcasm may keep it.
P.P.S. You would like to have a look into something like /etc/init.d/
You haven't mentioned your operating system, - /etc/init.d/dovecot start|stop|restart is for many Linux distributions; on FreeBSD you would use something like:
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/dovecot start|stop|restart
