I try to install dovecot, I do everything on the guide https://support.rackspace.com/how-to/dovecot-installation-and-configuration-on-centos/

After executing the command:

$ sudo yum install dovecot 

You need to make settings in the file:

 /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf 

But there is no such folder (dovecot) and, accordingly, the configuration file in the / etc directory. What am I doing wrong? Do I manually create it? The goal is to make this script work:

 echo "Установка и конфигурирование Dovecot" yum -y install dovecot cp /etc/dovecot/h0uoixdovecot.conf{,.orig} cat <<'EOF' > /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf listen = * ssl = no protocols = pop3 imap disable_plaintext_auth = no auth_mechanisms = plain login mail_access_groups = vmail default_login_user = vmail first_valid_uid = 2222 first_valid_gid = 2222 #mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir mail_location = maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%n passdb { driver = passwd-file args = scheme=SHA1 /etc/dovecot/passwd } userdb { driver = static args = uid=2222 gid=2222 home=/var/vmail/%d/%n allow_all_users=yes } service auth { unix_listener auth-client { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } user = root } service imap-login { process_min_avail = 1 user = vmail } EOF rm /etc/dovecot/passwd touch /etc/dovecot/passwd rm /tmp/vmp mailpass=`echo -e $mps` doveadm pw -p $mailpass -s sha1 | cut -d '}' -f2 > /tmp/vmp 

there still must be some file in this directory, for example h0uoixdovecot.conf . Why are they not there?

    Releasing the alarm, apparently there were some problems with my ftp client, just went through the console to the etc directory and saw that all the folders were in place and the configuration file was also
