Imap or related task crashes with Web-Clients

[Jonathan Gerrard]

Please see ubuntu forums:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11856138#post11856138

I can't see any reason or cause for the issue within the logs, It appears that the Imap, or imap-auth program fails once authenticated squirrelmail or roundcube clients are associated (or within a few mins). Thinner clients don't cause the service to suffer. Service restarts for all the mail stack don't solve the issue, only a full system restart. This has been tested to fail on 32-bit and 64-bit 12.04 (beta) servers.

Please ask me if you require any further information or versions.

I'm setting the package to courier-imap as that is what the forum topic refers to.
Note the forum says it was SOLVED with what seems like a workaround, but a warning or performing the action done in the workaround by default would be nice.
