I got a non perfect installation: when an internal mail has been sent i got this error:

You don't get this error, when receiving an external message??

<error>
ex: from r...@*     to r...@*.
Command output: Can't open log file /var/log/dovecot.log: Permission denied
</error>
Operations like "dovecot: 2009-12-15 11:17:24 Warning: Killed with signal 15" are writen. It's a permission problem: dovecot.log is owned by "root" and grupped by "adm" (chmodded 640).

At first shot (if you would always get the error), I would say, you use system users and those users must not write to the log file.

Add write-permission for all (chmod a+w) or reconfigure Dovecot to let deliver use syslog:

protocol lda {
  ...
   # Log to syslog
  log_path =
  info_log_path =
  syslog_facility = mail
}
