OK here is what I did:

tcpdump -s0 -w /tmp/tcpdump.log host 192.168.8.16

strace -fttp 25445 2>&1|tee /tmp/strace.log

those were started at the same time and were left for ~2 min (the imapd 
process was still in the loop). I straced the couriertcpd process which forks 
imapd processes so the log includes entries from other children as well, the 
pid for the actual imapd process is  26484. The tcpdump log includes only 
entries to that mailbox (I moved it on a separate IP so the log is more 
clear).

I now see rename packats but they last for less than a second while the imapd 
process continues to loop for 2 minutes+.

I`m still confused as the nfs calls are far less then what I see in the 
strace:

tcpdump -r /tmp/tcpdump.log -vv -A -n | grep -i rename|wc -l
80


Anyway, here are the logs, I really hope there are of any use for debugging 
the problem:

http://0101.netclime.net/tcpdump.log.gz
