I have used the same options you have specified.

The problem is that the below processes are not running inside docker container whereas the standalone dovecot is running these processes(meaning without container)

<br>Hi Marc,
<br>
<br>I can see the processes are running as a root in container environment.
<br>Do you think that still have issues ?
<br>Here is the processes running inside container:
<br>
<br>bash-4.2# ps -ef
<br>UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMD
<br>root 1 0 0 Dec27 ? 00:00:00 /bin/bash /bootstrap.sh

<br> I have noticed several issues with dovecot, trying to run it
<br>without
<br> root. Which is preferable in any container environment. Maybe you
<br>would
<br> like me to document these somewhere? So at some point they can be
