Hey,
I have the same situation, but then on a Debian workstation. Especially when Thunderbird has big maildir's.
My solution is the following:

icedove clean cache:
cd /home/maikel/.icedove   <-- first find your thunderbird dir.
find . -name "*.msf" -exec rm -rf {} \;

This will delete the caching files.

Salute,

How did you do that, recreating your TB setup?
You rename your Thunderbird directory.  I think the default is somewhere 
around ~/.mozilla

Start TB and it will create a whole new directory structure. Configure 
your account and soforth.  then shutdown TB, copy over your mail 
directories, filters, address book, sigs and restart. There will be a 
little more config fixing, and you have a 'clean' setup with just your data.

I've got it working again!!
Like you suggested I did a "clean setup".
Thanks all of you for helping me to solve this problem.
