"no" means it starts the process as root as root. I guess you meant to use "yes".

It reads the file while running as root.
ACL_GROUPS=
groups $USER | tr ' ' ','export ACL_GROUPS
I don't think ACL_GROUPS is supported by Dovecot v1.0.
By the way: As soon as I change the mail_executable to /usr/local/sbin/dovecot-imap-fix.sh I get this message and have absolutely no clue why:
# /etc/init.d/dovecot restart Restarting IMAP/POP3 mail server: dovecotid: dump-capability: No such user . #
Which dump-capability? Which user?
It's because at startup Dovecot executes imap mail_executable as "dump-capability" user to find out what IMAP capabilities enabled plugins add. In your script you should probably check that if $USER=dump-capability, don't do anything special.
