Working out upgrade of old 1.x + 2.x Dovecot installs to
latest 2.3.2.1 out of Ubuntu Bionic repositories.
_______
https://wiki.dovecot.org/Services suggests Dovecot can
be used for full mail infrastructure, avoiding the
complexity of exim4 or other MTA setup/management.
Let me know if I understand this correctly.
1) https://wiki.dovecot.org/Submission can be used to
listen on port 25 + port 587 (with auth).
2) https://wiki.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole can be used for
filtering, including forwarding email to other machines.
3) https://wiki.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/ManageSieve/Configuration
can be used to forward off machine email, for example flowing
through a relay service like MailGun, using a simple script
or service like ESMTPD.
4) https://wiki.dovecot.org/LMTP can be used to deposit messages
into filesystem as Maildir or dbox or mdbox backing stores.
