I'm on RHES 4.x
I downloaded 2 dovecot RPM packages from http://packages.sw.be/dovecot/
dovecot-1.0.13-1.el4.rfx.i386.rpm 13-Nov-2010 22:15 1.8M RHEL4 and CentOS-4 x86 32bit and dovecot-0.99.13-1.2.el4.test.i386.rpm 21-Feb-2005 16:57 693K RHEL4 and CentOS-4 x86 32bit

Q1: Is the test version rpm of dovecot reliable? It's only half the size of the other rpm (that I was not able to install)
0.9 / 1.0 : These versions are way out of date and you will probably have a hard time getting support. I suggest you try the current versions from atrpms.net We have been using the 2.0 RHEL5 packages by Axel Thimm for quite some time now and they work flawlessly.
Link for RHEL4 packages: http://packages.atrpms.net/dist/el4/dovecot/
Maybe this fixes Q2 as well ;-)
Q3: You'll find lots of examples / tutorials in the dovecot wiki : http://wiki2.dovecot.org/#HOWTOs.2C_examples_and_tutorials
