gdb backtrace is the only good way to know why it would dump a core:

1. Set:

service lmtp {
  executable = lmtp -D
}

2. Run "ulimit -c unlimited" before starting dovecot 

Anyway, are you using mbox format? Out-of-quota with mbox was crashing.
This fixes it: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.0/rev/4ef2280ee490
