You may have already seen this, but there's an old Debian bug with a
mention of this same error message:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=718318

Could the issue here relate to a bad or missing symlink?

The other Debian bug reports didn't look relevant.

I notice that apt prompted them about the modified configuration, but I
can't quite discern what option they chose, or how the dovecot.conf
ended up looking like.  But you can see the diff if you search
DpkgTerminalLog.txt for 'Modified configuration file'.  Not spotting a
mention of any *managesieve* binary or source packages in any of the
logs or attachments.  The user's confirmed they believe it wasn't
installed, as you suspected.

I'm not spotting an upstream announcement that the
'managesieve_notify_capability' setting was deprecated or renamed; near
as I can tell that should still be supported.  But maybe it is only
recognized when dovecot-managesieved is installed?  That might explain
the behavior you're replicating.

Debian bug #665487 shows the same error message, but is also an ancient
one that's unlikely to be relevant, except that there might still be
corner cases in postrm leading to this error message.

I've added mention of these points to the bug.  Do you think this
bug may fall more on the line of "local user config", or do you have an
idea for an action we should take on addressing it in packaging?
