Some syscall is failing here with ENOSPC. Unfortunately the log doesn't show which syscall it is.. You could check this with strace. For example change:

mail_executable = /usr/bin/strace -o /tmp/dovecot.log /usr/local/ libexec/dovecot/imap

Then grep for ENOSPC from the /tmp/dovecot.log and show what it says?

I manually created a file in /data/mail/rebecca - which worked fine, and didn't cause any problems.

Can you create hard links (ln file file2)?

I have manually stopped postfix and dovecot, and then re-started them.. But to no avail.

Did you try rebooting the entire machine? Maybe the kernel is still confused.
