Containerize dovecot?

[Marc]

What are you trying to achieve with containerizing? If you want to deploy the container on a orchestrator so it is going to be (re)started on a random hosts. You have to take into account that your storage is persistant, you have to take into account getting something like proxy to redirect traffic etc etc. I managed to get this to work via alpine linux (nice small), but I think I am going back to vm.
