I was never able to track this down with valgrind. Following Heisenberg's
uncertainty principle, it seems that instrumenting the problem changed it.
Now I've upgraded to dovecot 1.2.4-2, removed all of the debugging
configuration including valgrind, and I haven't observed this problem any
more. Since I can no longer reproduce the problem, I'm closing this bug.
Thanks for your help.
Andrew.
