It's set to how dovecot.conf came:

#shutdown_clients = yes

If that indicates the default it is enabled. But it didn't work.
The thread I started wasn't so much about killing these children with a 
shutdown, anyway. It was about the behavior that these login processes 
stayed there for more than five hours after a dictionary attack that took 
only a few minutes before they eventually died away slowly.
