with LMTP...
* you dont need to care about mail filesystem permissions
* you can use dovecot lmtp proxy and/or director
* you don't need to spawn a new process for each message
One of the (potential) benefit is that a LMTP, because it can handle
multiple recipients, has the ability to optimize I/O (or storage?) by
using hardlinking to a single copy of a message (deduping). I don't
know if Dovecot takes advantage of this in any way though.
