I use IMP 4.3.10-cvs with dovecot 1.2.11 without problems.

Using mbox then?  I use mbox.  Couldn't help any with any other format...

If need be, but I doubt it would help.

BTW, I can reproduce the problem with very large mbox files, but otherwise
it works fine...  An mbox file of 3-4GiB will create this problem on
an intermittent problem on my server.  Smaller mbox files (2GiB or less)
have no such problems.  I've not had one issue with "smaller" mbox files
(less than 2 GiB).

I'm not.  It very well may matter, or not...
