For now, I bumped the 'open files' shell limit in the dovecot start script to 1024 (default was 64 which sounds a bit on the low side).
64 files as default for any process is absolutely weird.
[hf@bounce] /var/log # lsof -p head -1 /var/run/dovecot/master.pid | wc -l
49
on any process and think twice about setting the max open files to such a strange value.
What, 1024? The default of 64 which has been quite sufficient for Dovecot 0.99.x until now, and still is for other server processes?
