Don't overwrite dovecot.conf on upgrades

Needs Review

Hi,

When upgrading cpanel/whm - you overwrite the file of /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf, which I have custom settings in it, which blocks email traffic and I need to manually enter again all the custom settings and then restart the dovecot daemon/service.

Please avoid it or instead, at least before the overwrite - save the current file as a backup copy in the same folder, for easy restore.

Thanks.
