 They should exist in Dovecot's base_dir, which is by default
 in /var/run/dovecot/ directory.
Ok, this is the configured directory indeed, and it is clean.
 
  I guess they should have been cleaned up, is

  dovecot 1.1.
 
 They get wiped out from base_dir when Dovecot starts up. If your
 base_dir isn't in /etc/dovecot/, I've no idea why they would have gone
 there.
Must have been a misconfiguration when I installed dovecot new on this server. 
I cleaned the files manually, and all works fine. Thanks.
