I'm tending to agree now.

Yeah, as I said before, the language got in the way of me understanding 
the yum output properly.

It would have to be for yum to see dovecot-imaptest-2.3.5.1-1.x86_64 and 
dovecot-lua-2.3.5.1-1.x86_64.  It sounds more like he's put an 
exclude=dovecot line in his dovecot-2.3-latest repo container.
