No, the automatic update should do fine. At the worst your email server will
be down for 3 minutes.
But if you want, run "yum update" manually. Run it repeatedly until it fetches
no more updates. Among the updates should be the updated dovecot, the updated
sendmail. Once they're installed, go to the GUI interface to "Network
Services" / "Email". Tick all the new boxes and click "save" to enable
SMTP-AUTH, POP3S and IMAPS.
One of the patches you got recently through YUM was
solarspeed-av-spam-patch-1.0.6-SOL1. It contains an updated cronjob called
/home/av-spam/scripts/check_sa-daemon, which repairs whatever modifications
the Dovecot/Sendmail updates made to the AV-SPAM system.
You can either wait three minutes until the Cronjob runs after the YUM update,
or you can run that script manually from the command line as root:
/home/av-spam/scripts/check_sa-daemon
