Dear BOB. H,

Thanks for your response, you are right, it is "ntpdate" that create the
problem after reboot not "ntpd". once the time is corrected by "ntpdate"
after that no issues as long as server is up.

there are other solution, who wish to run both daemons. bash script can
monitor dovecot every 5min through cron. when dovecot will stop due to
time shifted error after reboot, script will start it again. and would be
fine as long as server does not reboot again.

Thanks / Regards
