Browsing in the 2003-September archives, I found out how to start dovecot from inetd (using imap-login instead of imap). Still I've got a few problems. I prefer not using inetd, but that seams impossible (see my 1st email). And telnetting to port 143 results in an immediate connection close. Hmmm, I'll continue exploring the archives.
What does the logfile say? If you're using syslog, dovecot uses the LOG_MAIL facility I think, so you might want to check whatever log that prints to. I had a couple problems like this, and it was because I had set up authentication incorrectly, so you may want to double check that.
