My experience is that it is better to run IMAP server on localhost and
store all messages there ... emails are too valuable thing to be given to
pre-release code. Anyway ...

I would love to see a bug report for this with a backtrace of thunderbird
when it is in 100% CPU state. So, please:
1) install all -debuginfo packages (debuginfo-install thunderbird is your
friend),
2) start TB,
3) open gnome-terminal (or whatever terminal emulator you use in X) and
when TB goes to 100% CPU, you will have hopefully at least enough juice
to Alt+TAB to the terminal and run
gdb --pid=$(/sbin/pidof thunderbird-bin)
(you can have it prepared on the command line, so you just run Alt+TAB
and Enter)
4) when you finally get gdb prompt, run command
thread apply all backtrace
5) you get many screens of stuff, please, copy it into a new bug report
against Thunderbird component on bugzilla.redhat.com.
Thank you,
Matěj
