Do that for all the protocols you want to enable on an external interface...
A better idea would be to put that line into a /etc/dovecot/conf.d/local.conf file and leave 10-master.conf alone. The local.conf file, since it sorts after 10-master, will over-ride the settings in 10-master.conf.
This will leave the RPM-packaged 10-master.conf file alone, so you can upgrade Dovecot without having to merge your modifications into the .rpmnew file.
Hope this helps,
Very good point....
As I mentioned, I've never set up dovecot.
