dovecot - Nov 2014 - custom ssh port doveadm sync

Hi all,

First sorry i really couldn't find it back been searching everywhere 
even the docs and its bit confusing.
I am using # doveadm -D sync -u *@mydomain.net remote:myserver.net # 
which works perfect however for security reasons we now need to change 
the sshd port on the remote server.
How do i tell doveadm  to use a custom SSH port (would love to continue 
to use just the ssh connection), if anyone could explain that would be 
great, because all i found is custom tcp or tcp ssl which is not what we 
want to use, as i wish to stick with custom ssh port.

Regards,
r.

 From the dsync man page

EXAMPLE
    SYNCHRONIZATION
        Synchronize mailboxes with a remote server.  Any errors are 
written to stderr.

               doveadm sync -u username at example.com 
remote:server-replica.example.com

        If you need more complex parameters to ssh, you can use e.g.:

               doveadm sync -u username at example.com ssh -i id_dsa.dovecot \
               mailuser at example.com doveadm dsync-server -u 
username at example.com
