You can generally assume that all released versions of the server managed
by Webmin are supported, as I try to keep up to date with new releases of
Apache, Squid, Samba and so on. In the case of Dovecot, the new 1.0 config
file format is fully supported. Actually, that took quite a bit of effort,
as for reasons unknown to me the Dovecot developers changed their format
substantially between 0.99 and 1.0alpha and 1.0 (without really improving
it, IMHO).
