I find this in my /etc/dovecot.conf, immediately after a similar
commented out example:

# This was set up by PH for testing                                             


auth default_with_listener {                    
  mechanisms = plain                                                      
  passdb pam {                                                                
    args = "*"                                                               
  }                                                                          
  userdb passwd {                                                              
  }                                                     
  socket listen {               
    master {                    
      path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master                             
      # WARNING: Giving untrusted users access to master socket may be a  
      # security risk, don't give too wide permissions to it!             
      #mode = 0600
      # Default user/group is the one who started dovecot-auth (root)
      #user = 
      #group = 
    }
    client {
      path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-client
      mode = 0666
    }
  }
}


I suggest you search your conf for default_with_listener.
