Dovecot is good (Im also using) but there some important things to choose cyrus IMAP, such as single copy option.
Assume that you'll send a mail (60K) to 100.000 users which will make 6.000.000K or server will try to
send 6.000.000 mail size of 60K. Instead of doing this cyrus will send 1 mail but 100.000 users will able to see it.
But I advice cyrus for huge amount of users..
