dovecot - Mar 2011 - Errors logged from 2.0.11

Hi all,

we use dovecot 2.0.11 with local (LDAP based) users and see (occasionally)
error messages like
  "Mar 15 09:29:26 MailServ local3:err|error dovecot: imap(xxxx): Error:
creat(/dovecot.mailbox.log) failed: Permission denied (euid=1985(xxxx)
egid=219(yyyy) stat() failed: No such file or directory, euid is not dir owner)
but all (filesystem) permissions are correct and the user doesn't report
any errors.

All works as expected. What can be the reason for such messages?

It's trying to open a file from root directory. Maybe that user's home
directory is set to /?
