Dovecot creates all the environment variables that the shell sees.  
Dovecot master process passes all the configuration and the user- 
specific data in environment variables to the mail processes. Easiest  
way to get a list of what is available is to just add to the mail  
executable script:

set > /tmp/dovecot.envs
