Believe me, there is no technical reason why you can't use the current
update release of RHEL 7. Current is

# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.8 (Maipo)

redhat-release-server-7.8-2.el7.x86_64

Red Hat does not provide a newer dovecot. If you don't need their
support and just test out dovecot 2.3 you can get it as a working RPM
package from ghettoforge.org.
