I got a non perfect installation: when an internal mail has been sent i got this error:
You don't get this error, when receiving an external message??
<error> ex: from root@* to root@*. Command output: Can't open log file /var/log/dovecot.log: Permission denied </error> Operations like "dovecot: 2009-12-15 11:17:24 Warning: Killed with signal 15" are writen. It's a permission problem: dovecot.log is owned by "root" and grupped by "adm" (chmodded 640).
At first shot (if you would always get the error), I would say, you use system users and those users must not write to the log file.
Add write-permission for all (chmod a+w) or reconfigure Dovecot to let deliver use syslog:
protocol lda { ... # Log to syslog log_path = info_log_path = syslog_facility = mail }
