I have postfix + dovecot server. Mail for local users are saved by dovecot lmtp. Recently I got some messages from postfix:

This is because postfix has configured with default value lmtp_line_length_limit (990). I can turn off this limit (set to 0) but I am curious if dovecot lmtp will accept so lengthty lines? Does dovecot lmtp has any line limits?

Dovecot LMTP and Submission enforce the RFC line length, which is 1000, including \r\n.
