I have this EXACT same problem after upgrading to SuSE 11.1, which uses this exact kernel version!!
After reading this, I was excited to think that if I killed the nfsserver daemon (which I had running for no good reason), that it would sort my problem....
Sure enough, my computer - which up to now had been going unresponsive every 24 hours - was running fine for 72 hours and then BOOM... it happened again.
Just wanted to let people know that it seems that at the minute, the dovecot that ships with SuSE and the kernel they are using in 11.1 exhibit this problem.

I have running the older debian/sid dovecot 1:1.0.15-2.3 again, now with kernel 2.6.27-10.slh.1-sidux-686 and the issue seems to be fixed. So I recommend to use at least 2.6.27.10.
Bye, Arno.
