I don't have any solution but i just thought i'd post my experience.

I'm using Thunderbird 1.5.0.5 on OS X and dovecot 1.0rc3 on FreeBSD 6.1 
and it's been way happy.
The only difference i see is that i'm using Maildir

I had a problem a few months ago where imap was crashing often and i 
ended up deleting the .cache's and everything got happy again.

I also built dovecot with --with-ioloop=kqueue --with-notify=kqueue
Everything is happy here.
