Comment (by jmroot):

 Replying to [comment:3 pcafstockf]:
 > However, all/any of `port build dovecot`, `port -y install dovecot`,
 `port install dovecot` all return: \\
 > {{{Error: Unable to execute port: Could not open file: /my-local-
 portrepo/mail/dovecot/Portfile.}}}\

 Most likely a permissions issue. Because builds are done with reduced
 privileges, the Portfile and all recursive parent directories need to be
 accessible to the `macports` user.

 I can just push this simple fix directly though, rather than making you
 open a PR.
