What Dovecot version? v1.0.8 fixed one bug that caused this.

Also it's of course quite pointless to even read maildirsize for each  
FETCH. This has been fixed in v1.1..

..

This shows that Thunderbird is sending a separate FETCH for each  
message for some reason. Even without maildirsize updates it might be  
slow.
