The Dovecot developement is progressing very rapidily. With this said, make sure you remember keep your Dovecot install up to take. The Dovecot that was included with the first DA update with Dovecot was version 1alpha4 - now they are up to 1.0 beta7.

Here are some easy instructions to upgrade:

cd /usr/local/directadmin/customapache
./build update
./build update_dovecot
./build dovecot
/sbin/service dovecot restart (or whatever your restart strategy is)

If you're running Debian you'll need to get the correct init script by doing this:

wget -O /etc/init.d/dovecot http://files.directadmin.com/services/customapache/dovecot.boot.debian
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/dovecot

Cheers!
