Be great if someone can let me know how to fix this.

Thanks.
Still be great if someone can point me to a working Dovecot LMTP
example using new syntax...

Figured out the problem.
Appears to be an Ubuntu package problem.
Fix sequence...
1) In /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf change to...
service lmtp {
### unix_listener lmtp {
unix_listener /var/lib/dovecot/lmtp {
mode = 0660
user = vmail
group = vmail
}
# Create inet listener only if you can't use the above UNIX socket
#inet_listener lmtp {
# Avoid making LMTP visible for the entire internet
#address =
#port =
#}
}
2) Restart Dovecot to create the socket.
3) Change opensmtpd to use correct socket path.
4) Restart opensmtpd
