I get this problem as well, with dovecot running on a server running Fedora5 I first noticed this problem after a yum update that moved the server upto the rpm dovecot-1.0.0.beta8.3.fc5.i386 The server original ran OK after it was originaly upgraded to Fedora5, which shiped with the rpm dovecot-1.0.0.beta2.7.i386
The LDAP server is openldap-2.0.27-8 running redhat 9.0
The minimum to fix the problem seems to be kill the dovecot auth processes.
Well, since all of these versions are extremely outdated, the first thing to do is update dovecot - latest is rc17.
