I suppose I should have mentioned that this is Debian sid, so Dovecot 0.99.10.4 and SquirrelMail version 1.5.0. Not using pgsql or ldap.
What happens if you telnet to e.g. port 143 when this is happening? Do you get a response from dovecot?
I ask because I was experiencing the same symptom on a Debian (testing) machine a couple of months back. I had some assistance from Jaldhar but didn't get much closer to the answer. Eventually I put it down to low memory problems (it was a virtual-mode Linux server and had memory probs with other apps) and shifted to a real server with plenty of RAM. That's now also running Debian sid, dovecot and Squirrelmail without any problems.
Cheers,
Julian.

I'll try that next time and report to the list...

The machine has 2G of RAM and is not under a heavy load, so I don't think that should be the issue. I'm actually running a mixed testing/unstable system, although I don't believe any of the lower-versioned packages (from testing, rather than unstable) are involved in IMAP.
