After a couple of seconds when I try to start dovceot, I get this:

If I uncomment the "imap_quota and quota" in dovecot.conf everything seem to work fine

What quota backend are you using? fs or maildir?

wait4(-1, 0xffbd7e9c, 0, NULL) = ? ERESTARTSYS (To be restarted)

Dovecot doesn't have any calls to send SIGALRM signals.. If you're using fs quota with NFS rpc calls, that could cause it I guess, although I don't really understand why the signal would be sent to master process instead of just the child process.
