Which tells dovecot to also read local.conf for additional configuration parameters, but if local.conf doesn't exist, just ignore it's absence and proceed as normal.   Which tells dovecot to also read local.conf for additional configuration parameters, but if local.conf doesn't exist, just ignore it's absence and proceed as normal. === conf.d configuration files === Dovecot version 2.0.x includes configuration files that are read through by dovecot on start.  Dovecot will ignore all lines beginning with the # character (remarks).  By default, very few of these configuration parameters are active, most are remarked out until you decide you need the feature and remove the # character. The configuration files*auth.conf*director.conf*logging.conf*mail.conf*master.conf*ssl.conf*lda.conf*imap.conf*lmtp.conf*pop3.conf*acl.conf*plugin.conf*quota.conf Additional extensions*auth-checkpassword.conf.ext*auth-deny.conf.ext*auth-ldap.conf.ext*auth-master.conf.ext*auth-passwdfile.conf.ext*auth-sql.conf.ext*auth-static.conf.ext*auth-system.conf.ext*auth-vpopmail.conf.ext These are all located in the dovecot/conf.d directory.  Minor changes in naming may occur between versions and distributions, however, they work the same way and serve the same purpose.
