It shouldn't be crashing. Could you get a gdb backtrace from this? http://dovecot.org/bugreport.html
I set mail_drop_priv_before_exec = yes, and I did
ulimit -c unlimitedandecho "/tmp/core" > /proc/sys/kernel/core_patternbefore starting dovecot, but I still didn't get a core dump anywhere. Seems like the home directory is okay. No core file.
When Dovecot starts up, it logs a line:
Info: Dovecot v1.1.11 starting up
Do you see it, or do you see:
Info: Dovecot v1.1.11 starting up (core dumps disabled)

Well, that is weird. What does it log with the attached patch?
