Why not get dovecot to do the delivery; since dovecot already has rw access to 
all users' files?  The LDA mearly connecting to dovecot and passing the email to 
it.

It might even be possible to get the MTA to connect directly to dovecot instead 
of having a separate LDA program.

Not that I know enough to be aware of the implications of what I've just 
suggested ;-)
