Thank you, that was my question.

I don't really care what is wrong with it, if I can do without it.
I'm using the /etc/pki/tls/ cert and key in dovecot now,
and they seem to work fine.
Incidentally, I created the /etc/pki/dovecot/ cert and key years ago,
and never got this flood of warning messages until recently.
If in fact it is unnecessary to create a special cert and key for dovecot
it seems to me remiss not to say this in the dovecot installation doc.
