I'm getting "imap-login: Disconnected: Connection queue full:"
messages like these:

May 16 12:17:26 postamt dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected: Connection queue full: rip=160.45.172.202, lip=141.42.4.250
May 16 12:17:26 postamt dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected: Connection queue full: rip=141.42.165.160, lip=141.42.4.250, TLS
May 16 12:18:23 postamt dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected: Connection queue full: rip=193.175.70.61, lip=141.42.4.250

Should I worry about these messages or are they of informational
character only?

Does it mean that the imap-login encountered more than
"login_max_connections" and thus a new process had to be spawned?

Is there a parameter I should be changing (config below)
