Your Dovecot is trying to make index files. Index files are also used by pop3 for better performance.
And your mail_location configuration seems incorrect. The path after "mbox:" is where to create imap mailboxes and Dovecot's index files. Proper position for "/var/spool/mail/%u" is after "INBOX=" keyword.
For further information, read this.
