Hello,
I'm seeing some messages from dovecot in my logs such as:
May 8 11:43:41 snowdrift dovecot: IMAP(username): Disconnected: BUG: Unknown
internal error
I did some searching, and discovered a similar report last month, to
which there was a request for more information that didn't seem to get
followed up, so I have collected this information too.
Dovecot version: 1.0.10 (from Ubuntu hardy package, which includes some
patches; details of the patches can be found here:
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/collab-maint/deb-maint/dovecot/trunk/debian/patches/?rev=0&sc=0
)
OS: Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy)
CPU: x86
Filesystem: ext3
IMAP client: Thunderbird. What was happening with it is not too clear,
unfortunately it only seems to occur for one user, and that's not me.
Reproducability: Seems to occur fairly frequently, but unable to provide
steps.

Raw log output:

* BYE BUG: Unknown internal error
Immediately before that was a set of headers from an email, so I guess
that's what the "29" line's talking about, and it's just
the last two
that are relevant.
Please let me know if there's anything further I can provide to help
track this down.
Thanks,
Ainsley
