As Luke stated, `dovecot` comes with a lot of "modules" (under `/etc/dovecot/conf.d/` if you copied that folder) for all sorts of configurations that you can include, but I do as he does and just edit/create the whole `dovecot.conf` file; although, I would like to check each of the separate configuration files `dovecot` provides I think the options Luke provides are more than good enough.

-* Password: your `user` password (as in the password you use to login to the server with that user)

After you send the email, you should see something like:
