I don't know Redhat, but it seems to be wise to upgrade. What's the "Known Bug List" or "Known Security Holes" in Redhat EL 5.x?
What do you mean by that? BTW it's strange to me that Redhat never updated the main imap server part in there lon tearm supported enterprice distribution ... (RH EL 6 comes with dovecot 2.0 ok ... )

You could look into building Dovecot from source to get v2.1 or v2.2.
