You're going to have to help us to help you. 10 is bus error (I think) which is badness.
OS, version of dovecot etc.
you might want to debug a coredump, that will tell you where/why its dying too.
I would merrily gdb into a coredump and stacktrace away, if a core dump were created. No such luck.
I'm now logging directly to file using syslog, after having started dovecot. There is no limit on coredumps:
