You have a large mailbox and Mozilla tries to send a huge command to 
Dovecot. Next release has max. command line length configurable from 
config file, but for now you'd have to modify sources or try to avoid 
so many changes at once.

If you want to change it from sources, it's in beginning of  
src/imap/client.c MAX_INBUF_SIZE.
