We (www.egroupware.org) run Dovecot only containerized:

* as mail-server addon to our groupware server:
     - https://github.com/EGroupware/egroupware/wiki/EGroupwareMail
     - 
https://github.com/EGroupware/build.opensuse.org/tree/master/server:eGroupWare/egroupware-mail

* for our own SAAS hosting with multiple directors and backend-pairs

We use 2 different containers:

a) based on Dovecot CE repo including Lua for our push notifications
b) based on Alpine for directors, SASL and backend-pairs without push

So far we're not autoscaling anything.

Ralf
