Hello,
I am experiencing a very peculiar issue with zsh completion:
On a server where dovecot is installed, suddenly zsh completion does not
work for any keyword containing the keyword "dovecot".
For instance:
cd /etc/do<TAB>
service do<TAB>
chkconfig do<TAB>
nano /etc/default/do<TAB>
Also, when I do just service <TAB>, then all possibilities are listed,
(ie, all executable files in /etc/init.d/) but dovecot is not listed as
possible completion. As if it did not exist.
All of the above examples work for any other package / file / path.
If I try the same on a machine where package dovecot is not installed,
and just create dummy files in the paths:
/etc/dovecot/
/etc/init.d/dovecot
/etc/default/dovecot
then completion works normally.
I am using zsh 5.7.1 on Debian Buster.
thanks,

Did you somehow add 'dovecot' (or some other pattern that matches it) to your
ignored-patterns style? Try something like...
zstyle -L | grep -iE 'dove|ignored'
... and see if anything looks relevant

that's it !
I had dovecot in ignored-patterns
Sorry, my mistake. I can't remember how it got there.
But everything works now.
Thanks
