Topic: upgrading dovecot 1.1 to 1.2

# service dovecot restart
Stopping Dovecot Imap:                                     [FAILED]
Starting Dovecot Imap: Fatal: listen(127.0.0.1, 2000) failed: Address already in use                                                           [FAILED]

Should we change it to other ports?

No.

Check whether service "pysieved" is running. If so, stop it:

# /etc/init.d/pysieved stop
# chkconfig --level 345 pysieved off
# /etc/init.d/dovecot restart
