Much thanks for your reply.
However, once I make the changes to the configuration files, I get the
following error when restarting dovecot:
root at brama /etc/dovecot/conf.d> service dovecot restart
Stopping Dovecot Imap: [ OK ]
Starting Dovecot Imap: doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file
/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf: service(tcpwrap): executable is empty
[FAILED]
Any advice on how to proceed?
Thank you again,
