HowTo: Add custom configuration options for Dovecot

The default configuration of Dovecot already includes the ability to add custom configuration options for Dovecot that are not already covered by the templates in /etc/univention/templates/files/etc/dovecot/*and the corresponding UCR-variables.

root@imapserver:/etc/dovecot# tail -1 dovecot.conf
!include_try local.conf

Any valid configuration option (see Dovecot Config File Syntax) added to /etc/dovecot/local.conf will become active when restarting Dovecot. In case an option was defined earlier in the configuration chain the settings from local.conf will override it.
