Yes the same setting made the same change to the default with mysql:

https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/server-options.html#option_mysqld_log-warnings

So now we know how to silence the "Aborted connection" mysql loglines
thank you!


But still I wonder if Dovecot wants to handle these connections slightly
differently - if it could be cleaner? Or is it moot?
