dovecot has a healthy release cycle, so any patches are picked
directly through upgrading to the next dovecot release.

Actually the packages at ATrpms are in a yum repo, and even if you
don't want to point yum to it for any reason (maybe you don't trust
the rest of the content), you can create your own local repo and place
the downloaded rpm there. This will automate the deployment of new
servers again, you will only need to touch the setup for rpm upgrades.
