Thank you!  I should have looked a little closer before just trying to 
rebuild the source RPM.  Sure enough I was able to get Dovecot working 
with a MySQL database by just doing 'yum install dovecot' and adding in 
the pointers to a configured dovecot-mysql.conf file.

Thanks again for the nudge in the right direction!
