I've had bad experience so far with dovecot, including, but not limited to, lock file problems, hung imap processes in the bulk, and behaviour that neither matched the comments in the sample config file, nor the documentation (and both were contradictory), like the way to configure inbox and folder locations. Unless the OP has the time and resources to experiment, I'd suggest leaving that software alone for a while still until it has been stabilized, and go for proven alternatives like Cyrus or Courier (or even uw-imapd, if it's a one-person setup). mkb.
