Maybe being too literal, or misunderstanding your 'extra', I changed to,

        ...
        service auth-worker {
        #       user  = doveauth
        #       group = dovecot
                user = $default_internal_user

                unix_listener auth-worker {
                        user = postfix
                }
        }
        ...

At

        telnet 127.0.0.1 143
        etc

I get the same FAIL as above.

But, if first I

        chown doveauth:dovecot /var/run/dovecot/auth-worker

then

        telnet 127.0.0.1 143
        Trying 127.0.0.1...
        Connected to 127.0.0.1.
        Escape character is '^]'.

succeeds.
