But, both jails are named identically "test", and both jails resolve to identical hostnames "test" if using "hostname". But, a "hostname -f" is lacking to return "test.mx1.invalid" and "test.mx2.invalid", respectively (although a "nslookup test" does). Hmm, do you think I should need to provide different hostnames in both jails? 

That's the problem most likely. I'd guess Dovecot sees both servers as having "test" as the hostname and each server thinks it's the one that should be doing the locking and not the other.

See if this helps: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.2/rev/e7aabd79c9d5
