We have put this on several servers. but in this case it was no help for 
dovecot
I don't know if it was a recent update or what, all of a sudden when we 
rebooted the server dovecot stopped with the

dovecot: master: Error: service(imap-login): listen(::, 993) failed:
was on all dovecot ports including 110

fixed was adding "listen = *" in
/etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf
