Well, I've heard this happening with some people, but I've never been
able to reproduce it myself. Also I haven't heard of this happening
lately.

Do you connect with SSL to Dovecot? By "home server" do you mean it's
running in the same computer as your Thunderbird? Or same local network?

Are you able to easily reproduce this? Could you try enabling rawlog
(http://dovecot.org/bugreport.html) and check what is the last thing
that happens before it hangs?
