This all makes sense to me.

Arguably "hostname", but here I think it doesn't matter.

That at least needs an extra comma for consistency with the last line
of the boilerplate!

> +Description: secure mail server with mbox/maildir/dbox/mdbox - core files

That would need to be "with mbox/maildir/dbox/mdbox support" or "for
mbox/maildir/dbox/mdbox" or something.  And isn't it capital-M
Maildir?

Indeed, "mail server" would suggest to me that it was an SMTP rather
than IMAP/POP3 server - these descriptions don't really say anything
to set me straight if I thought that was the "main server" I'd get by
running "aptitude install dovecot-core".  Maybe calling it a "mail
system" would be enough?  It makes me wish people used the term
"mailbox server"...

And the support for "mbox, maildir, dbox and mdbox" really seems more
like material for the long description, since mbox/Maildir support is
routine and (m)dbox is Dovecot-specific.

So how about:

   Description: secure mail system - core files

    reliability. It tries very hard to handle all error conditions and verify
    that all data is valid, making it nearly impossible to crash. It supports
