This is the correct solution! I suspected it was possible, but did not find evidence of it in documentation. With a little try I found you can define more than one "socket listen” section. Mementum for who could have my same problem:

  socket listen {
    master {
      path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
      mode = 0600
      user = mail
      group = mail
    }
    client {
      path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-client
      mode = 0660
    }
  }
  socket listen {
    client {
      path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth
      mode = 0666
      user = postfix
      group = postfix
    }
  }

Thanks
Andre
