Don't compile with --enable-debug. It's not meant for normal users and these kind of problems can happen. The "throttling" line starts slowing down the imap process a lot.
Re-compiled without --enable-debug. Shorter log files, but still no messages about why the server is stopping.
What about ~/.mail/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist file? It should contain something like:
1 1127056150 5891 31 1059753523.2405.mbox:2,F 32 1059753524.2405.mbox:2,F
The second number in first line (1127056150) is the UIDVALIDITY. Does it keep changing? The rest of the lines contain <UID> <maildir file>. Do their UIDs keep changing?
Hmm. I don't see any such file! Can it be recreated, or maybe restored from backup?
Dovecot always creates it. If you're able to open the maildir, the first thing that happens is that dovecot-uidlist file gets created. Each mailbox has its own one of those..
I've done a thorough search of the while .mail/Maildir hierarchy, and there are no such files here! I also don't see any in the INDEX directory.
Mario-- I don't need a name; my number's just fine. It's nobody else's -- just mine, all mine.
