In this case there there's a significant probability that either the 
plugin was compiled against a different dovecot version, using a 
different compiler than the dovecot build and/or using different shared 
library versions to link against, each of which can lead to obscure and 
hard to debug misbehaviour / "bugs", which could be easily avoided.

So either use both programs as prepackaged binaries which belong together, 
or build both yourself from the same sources, using the same compiler and 
the same library versions.

Greetings,

  Gunter
