By default Thunderbird opens 5 IMAP connections per client instance. When running TBird on the same machine that runs Dovecot, and connecting via localhost, I'm not sure what TBird may do in this case. It may ignore it's default setting of 5 and open as many connections as it wants. I am the only one running thunderbird. .I normally let thunderbird stay open forever.. there are only 2 of us logged into this box, me & my wife. She runs kmail, with an IMAP account.
In your case, you can probably safely set this to 100 (and restart Dovecot) to prevent this problem in the future. I'm not sure why I would want to set this, thunderbird has always run fine before ( and since)..
also in my dovecot log I'm getting this: 2010-11-08 12:45:52 deliver(pbc): Fatal: postmaster_address setting not given
and I KNOW I set this before... and I have this in dovecot.conf: postmaster_address=pbc@localhost
