And also post

Try commands below:
yum -y reinstall dovecot
yum -y install dovecot-pigeonhole dovecot-mysql
the second command give this output:

Thank you very much

As a matter of interest, you say you removed then reinstalled dovecot. How did you go about that exactly? (It appears that it did not actually reinstall?)
I've said reinstall. Where do you see the remove?
