It looked for a bit like this should just work in that I entered:
apt-get install dovecot-imapd
The following NEW packages will be installed:
dovecot-core dovecot-imapd libexttextcat-2.0-0 libexttextcat-data
liblua5.3-0 libstemmer0d ssl-cert
0 upgraded, 7 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 5,344 kB/5,750 kB of archives.
After this operation, 14.2 MB of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n] yes
Then the wheels flew off:

I ran the following to be safe:
wb5agz martin tmp $ sudo apt-get purge dovecot-imapd
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package 'dovecot-imapd' is not installed, so not removed
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
At least nothing got partly installed but stuff is
obviously not quite right.
Is it safe to try that suggestion?
