Hi Richard,
some thoughts:
- to me this is a Dovecot (upgrade) issue
I feared the same, though the question was if maybe the way SOGo and
Dovecot talk to each other could have been an issue, as the log entry
was by SOGo and because of that warning message.
- it would be helpful to have the whole Dovecot config -> output of
'doveconf -n'

- do you know the new configuration upgrade tool?:
https://dovecot.org/upgrader/
you could try it and see, if there are differences between your
current configuration and the configuration converted by the tool from
v2.3
I know of it, I've tried it, but it's only ever so slightly more helpful
than the in times quite unhelpful migration guide. And sometimes it's
just generating false conversions that prevent Dovecot's service from
starting.
- these outputs of ls for these directories of an example user would
also be helpful:
ls -la /maildirs/username/
ls -la /maildirs/username/
