Yes, stopping and restarting lockd fixed this problem. Anybody know how to clear out stale locks in Solaris without killing lockd? This problem only bit me once.

This error comes from kernel, so Dovecot can't really help it. Either your lockd broke, or there were too many locks being used (stale locks maybe left lying around?).
