Spoke too soon,
   I think I have a way to reproduce the error.  Here are the steps:

1. Exit out of thunderbird
2. delete mail/.imap folder
3. Restart thunderbird
4. delete a message ( I have setting so that message are moved to Trash
when deleted)

At that point I get the assertion error in the log files.  I'm three for
three so far doing this way.  Though this could be normal for first time
creating the index files in .imap?
