* check postfix master.cf for chroot - only explicit "n" disabled it
* check configuration of the private/dovecot-auth (permissions and so on)
* look at your logs careful

that is my part in dovecot.conf:
service auth {
unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth {
mode = 0660
user = postfix
group = postfix
}
}

that's my part in postfix's main.cf:
smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot
smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth

well, both are unchanged for a very long time and survived
a lot of dist-upgrades (Fedora) as well as Dovecot/Postfix
