Hi!
I tried with your config and I got:
Jun 05 08:43:30 auth-worker(11465): Error: passwd-file /etc/dovecot/users: User
t...@test.com is missing userdb info
This is because your line is missing sufficient amount of colons, try changing
t...@test.com:{plain}test
into
t...@test.com:{plain}test:::::::::::
