I compared with a bit older installation and there I see:

drwxr-x---  3    5000    5000    4096 18. Mai 2014  dovecot

# ll
insgesamt 20
drwxr-xr-x 2 5000 5000 4096  8. Mai 2014  db
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   62 18. Mai 2014  instances
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   78 15. Mai 2014  mounts
-rw------- 1 root root 1789 22. Dez 2013  replicator.db
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  230 15. Mai 2014  ssl-parameters.dat

I' ll try with set it to 5000:5000
