Just went through this again today. Has anyone found a solution?
As far as I know, it's a known thing with the last official version (i.e. with 0.99.10.4). Somebody correct me if I'm wrong of course. There seems to be some kind of resource leak that eventually results in a lockup of the supervisor task. We still have to restart it every week or so.

After several days of operation, POP connections fail to my server. The log message is

Killing the dovecot process, deleting /var/lock/subys/dovecot, and restarting the process gets POP3 and IMAP working again.
Suggestions?
