Oops, this must have passed under the radar due to some stale .go file
issue, nice catch!

According to the dovecot link you provided, it isn't clear whether this
'ssl' in the context of inet-listener is a dovecot boolean [1] or is a
string in the same manner like the core ssl setting [2].
I'm afraid the dovecot documentation isn't the clearest here.

Some of the boolean options are really dovecot boolean, it's only
this ssl? field in the inet-listener that is strange.
I think it might be better to leave it for a separate patch as you
have suggested, in that case feel free to discard the 4/4 patch.

I'm afraid not since this is a limitation of email, there's no
guarantee that emails arrive in the same order that they're sent.

Furthermore, I consider that nonfree software must be eradicated.
