I don’t think you need to have doveadm_port set, since you’re not replicating over TCP. Remove it and it should just work? Anyway, it still shouldn’t have failed, this fixes it:

http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.2/rev/47848e9fc622

also this gives a bit better error message for the PASS lookup failure:
