dovecot support has been around for a release, has decent testing and seems stable enough to remove the "experimental" qualifier.

Dovecot integration
As of version 0.04 (2018-02), chasquid has integration with dovecot for authenticating users.
This means that chasquid can ask dovecot to authenticate users, instead/in addition to having its own per-domain user databases.
Configuring dovecot
The following needs to be added to the Dovecot configuration, usually in
/etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf:
service auth {
unix_listener auth-chasquid-userdb {
mode = 0660
user = chasquid
}
unix_listener auth-chasquid-client {
mode = 0660
user = chasquid
}
}
If chasquid is running under a different user, adjust the user = lines
accordingly.
This lets chasquid issue authentication requests to dovecot.
Configuring chasquid
Add the following line to /etc/chasquid/chasquid.conf:
dovecot_auth: true
That should be it, because chasquid will "autodetect" the full path to the dovecot sockets, by looking in the usual places (tested in Debian, Ubuntu, and CentOS).
If chasquid can't find them, the paths can be set with the
dovecot_userdb_path and dovecot_client_path options.
