The Dovecot company decided that 2.3 to 2.4 would be a gratuitously
incompatible config file rewrite, and that they would pull one feature
in favor of their commercial-only product: automatic syncing of two or
more Dovecot servers.

If you are only running one IMAP server, or just a handful of accounts
on N servers, it's the config file changes which will be aggravating but
not impossible.
