You'll need to set UNIX permissions in a way that it works. > Which led me to ACLs.

No. What that means is that there's probably a bug in the code that tries to check what permission problem you have (hopefully fixed in later version, v1.1.10 is getting a bit old). The ACL it mentions isn't Dovecot ACLs, but filesystem ACLs or perhaps SELinux or something else. I guess I should change the error message.
