Don't use Dovecot 2.0.4, even if your distro tries to tempt you into
doing so by including such a version.

Whilst it looks like a stable version number, there were a number of
issues with early Dovecot 2.0.x.

Instead use 2.0.latest.

Starting from http://www.dovecot.org/download.html you could find

http://packages.atrpms.net/dist/el6/dovecot/

which provides 32- and 64-bit RPMs of Dovecot 2.0.16.
