I found something in syslog today:

local0.log.20090916:Sep 16 11:58:01 tr27n18.aset.psu.edu dovecot: auth 
(default): BUG: Worker sent reply with id 1, expected 2
local0.log.20090916:Sep 16 11:58:01 tr27n18.aset.psu.edu dovecot: auth 
(default): worker-server(mck2,146.186.125.214): Aborted: Worker is buggy
