Is this necessary? Exim calls the dovecot-lda as user $local_part and if
you setup your mail storage to have the right permissions, this should
work without SUID. But maybe I'm wrong; anyway in the wiki there is a
section on how-to use LDA without setting the process SUIDed.

-> towards the end of the page

Cheers, Adrian.
