This is a Debian lenny/sid installation. Dovecot has been installed on it for over a year, with no problems. Lately (i.e. the past few months), if I attempt to read a message, Icedove crashes. It does not do this when I read a message downloaded from the ISP's POP3 server (not that I do this very often - almost all my mail goes through Dovecot).
Have you tried creating a new account with the same settings as the normal Dovecot account? Maybe Icedove/Thunderbird has corrupted some local data.
If it persists, then get a raw log from Dovecot and let's see what has to be done from there.
