The file was created by a regular "yum install dovecot", and i altered it
later using nano
The weard thing is, when it runs it keeps running, sometimes when i
reboot it isn't blocked by SELinux, but most times it is.
I just did the "restorecon /etc/dovecot.conf" and rebooted and it started
fine
Basically its context is wrong, Should be dovecot_etc_t not
etc_runtime_t.
Errrr??

I can only fix this by doing a "fixfiles relabel" and "touch
./autorelabel" and then it works again, till the next reboot..
Is there a way to fix this? or is there a way to exclude dovecot from
SELinux??
restorecon /etc/dovecot.conf
How does that file get created? Is it being created by an init script?
Basically its context is wrong, Should be dovecot_etc_t not
etc_runtime_t.
Well watch that file context and make sure no init script is replacing
that file.
I'll keep an eye on it, thanks.
