I don't think Peter asked for a HOWTO on reading Ralf. No need to send three mails for that.

@Peter: inheritance is not really a thing with PKGBUILDs afaik. However, you can do two things to get the desired results: Ask for inclusion of the feature with a feature request in the bug tracker or create your own local repository with precedence over the others in which you build your own version of dovecot.
