If you have many boxes then I'll assume you have already tested your 
upgrade path and you have some solid reasons to assume the new version 
will upgrade smoothly and you have already done the necessary 
preparations, and you're only missing the information about how to 
manage these prompts.

Once again, a config file only needs to be replaced if it has actually 
changed upstream, and most of the changes upstream are commented out 
because 90% of dovecot config files is commented out, either actual 
comments or commented-out settings that serve only to document the defaults.

If upgrading from e.g. 2.2.15 to 2.2.16, chances are you can totally 
skip all config file changes. If upgrading from 2.1, you have bigger 
problems than this. Keep things in perspective :-)
