I created : /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/custom/dovecot/conf.d/99-serviceimap.conf

and placed in

service imap {
process_limit = 2000
}

and

cat /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/custom/dovecot/conf/limits.conf

default_process_limit=4096
default_client_limit=12288
default_vsz_limit=8GB


But still not working

I have to edit it into my dovecot.conf. I've scripted Dovecot updates for this reason. You can copy my work if you'd like: https://github.com/mxroute/da_server_updates/blob/master/dovecot/update_dovecot.sh
