Call it a stab in the dark, but try removing the PID file at:

Yes, that should do the trick (at least so as to get more informative messages on next launch).

Currently, looks like as if dovecot hasn't been cleanly terminated last time, before having the opportunity to remove its pid file.
James, did you have to abruptly shut down your box?

You guessed correctly Axel! The server had locked up and had to power cycle it.

Removing the .pid file seems to have fixed all.

Thanks,

James.
