Just to provide another perspective, I've been using Dovecot for about
six months and it hasn't crashed once.  Of course, I'm only using it in
a 'toy' capacity -- about a dozen mailboxes or so.  I'm quite impressed
with it; my only complaint is that Squirrelmail can see the index files;
if it were up to me, the IMAP server would hide them.
