Dovecot does not support LMTP, hence, Dovecot IMAPS cannot be your LDA.

An LDA is a program the MTA is calling to locally deliver mail. Which is 
"deliver" with Dovecot. Have you read and understood 
http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Exim already?

"lda" is no protocol, but an acrynom in the chain of MTA and MSA, hence, 
remove it here and read the Wiki to enable the Dovecot LDA in exim.
