[Dovecot] dovecot-1.0_rc7 crashes (Login process died too early) with repeated deletes from thunderbird

[Jim Horner]

I had the exact problem yesterday. I am using the exact same namespace. I just 
figured it was my email client, KMail, and my solution was to delete 10 mails 
at a time... I wanted to delete 142 emails at once, I highlighted all of 
them, shift-delete and was not able to complete the delete action... KMail 
crashed, if I remember correctly so I did not check the syslog of the server.
