There is no dovecot2 package in the official FreeBSD repository / ports 
tree: https://www.freshports.org/search.php?query=dovecot

You have very stale packages on your machines and you didn't read 
instructions in UPDATING file of "pkg updating" command:


20170807:
   AFFECTS: users of mail/dovecot2 and mail/dovecot2-pigeonhole
   AUTHOR: adamw at FreeBSD.org

   Now that dovecot1 has been removed from the ports tree, dovecot2
   and dovecot2-pigeonhole have been renamed to simply dovecot and
   dovecot-pigeonhole.

   pkg should handle the rename automatically, but if you run into
   trouble, you can point pkg at the new origin via:

   # pkg set -o mail/dovecot2:mail/dovecot
   # pkg set -o mail/dovecot2-pigeonhole:mail/dovecot-pigeonhole

   Similarly, you can point portmaster at the new location via:

   # portmaster -o mail/dovecot mail/dovecot2

   If all else fails, just remove and reinstall the package:

   # pkg delete dovecot2
   # pkg install dovecot
