This version gives problems with my post-login script to track last usage, which works perfect with 2.0.12.

That would be because of this change:

    - script-login binary wasn't actually dropping privileges to the
      user/group/chroot specified by its service settings.

Hmm. I suppose it drops the privileges a bit too early now.. Well, you can switch back to v2.0.12 behavior by removing the user=dovecot:

service imap-postlogin { user = dovecot

I'll fix it properly for v2.0.14 then. Another alternative would be to change config socket's permissions to allow dovecot user to read/write it.
