You might be better served asking this question on the Dovecot forum.
In any case, from the Dovecot web site, when requesting help, supply
these:

1) Mention the Dovecot version number. Use dovecot --version to get it.

2) Use dovecot -n output when showing your configuration.

3) It lists only the main settings in dovecot.org though, so if you've
a SQL/LDAP related problem get their configuration with

	grep -v '^*\(#.*\)\?$' dovecot-sql.conf
