Here is my config file.
You didn't have "protocols" line there. By default Dovecot only listens for IMAP connections. If you want POP3 you'll need to add pop3 there.

You most likely don't want to have "passdb passwd" configured. pam + userdb passwd is enough.

It looks like your PAM lookup is taking two seconds. You could look at auth.log to see if PAM had logged something.
If nothing else helps, you could try using "passdb shadow" instead of PAM to see if it makes it faster.

Run ntpd instead of ntpdate or whatever is currently moving your time backwards. Or if you're running a virtual machine you may need to do something differently..
