Actually, I was wrong - that did indeed fix the problem. Thanks.

Thanks. Unfortunately, that made no difference.

Exactly - I removed then with *find* . -name "dovecot.index*" -type f -delete
There is no need to restart dovecot. IMAP client will be forced to resync all the emails from the server.

Thanks. Assuming that the IMAP mail directory for the account affected is under /home/xyz/mail, are you talking about the contents of the index directory, excluding the log file therein?

Hi,
I had the similar messages after an upgrade then downgrade. I was able to fix by removing all indexes files.

This happening when my Thunderbird client is trying to establish a connection with a Dovecot server. Some background first:
- I am running Thunderbird 6.20.1 from a Linux client.
- Other clients (e.g. Maildroid in my Android phone) do not have any issues.
- The Dovecot software is version 2.2.9, running in a Linux server.
- This may be the root of the problem: at some point, the Dovecot software was changed to version 2.3.1, and the reverted to 2.2.9. The crash started to appear when this reversion took place.
My guess is that upgrading to 2.3.1 will eliminate this problem. However, in case that does not solve the problem, I would be grateful if anybody could throw some light into exactly what is going on here, and whether it can be fixed even without the need of upgrading to 2.3.1.
What follows are the traces generated by Dovecot 2.2.9 when a connection is attempted from Thunderbird, with usernames and IP addresses disguised for privacy, and some blank lines inserted for readability:
