Maildir doesn't have indexes.  Are you sure that the delays you're
seeing are from dovecot rebuilding them when someone accesses their IMAP

That looks to me as if 'deliver' is not allowed to write to ~/Maildir.
As which user is it running?  Can it deliver when you run it as the same
user who owns ~/Maildir?
