Seems there is some nasty problems with Dovecot 1.1.4...
We use Maildir++ quota, and when moving mail to Trash, Dovecot just
drop the connection... when the maildir is overquota.
Dovecot really shouldn't be dropping the connection. What do the logs
say about it? Either it crashed (which should be in logs) or the
client disconnected itself (and you should have a "Logged out" message
in logs). http://wiki.dovecot.org/Logging
Is there any way to avoid that and just move the mail to the trash
allowing user to expunge their mail easily without calling support
to do rm -rf Maildir/cur ?
Give extra quota for Trash mailbox so copying there is still allowed
while otherwise over quota. See quota rules in http://wiki.dovecot.org/Quota/1.1
