With this change, mailing lists can now have associated login accounts, which allow folks to send emails via SMTP from a @nixos.org email address.

This completes #510

I opted to keep dovecot around. We're not using it for IMAP, just for SASL authentication. It would have requires some (brittle) overriding of settings from nixos-mailserver to get rid of dovecot. If we really want to get rid of dovecot someday, I believe we should try to add an option upstream in simple-nixos-mailserver.
