 The dovecot port creates the necessary dovecot user and group in post-
 destroot, at build time on the build system.  This fails if the built
 package is moved to another system, or the user is deleted before it's
 installed, etc.

 I'm thinking doing it at activation time would be more correct, and it
 seems to work for me.
