Mairix is very memory-intensive - it may be running out of memory and getting killed by the OOM killer (assuming you are running on some Linux system). Run top or vmstat or the gnome applet system monitor thingie and check the memory usage. If you *are* running out of memory, you may be able to add swap space and have it continue but that is likely to be *very* slow - adding real memory is the only workable solution. E.g. it would take 0.5 hours on my older 1GB laptop with lots of swap space, but with 4GB (and no swap space usage at all) it went down to 30 seconds.
