I have recently installed new untangle firewalls ( untangle.com) in

the untangles i have been plagued by Thunderbird Errors while trying to
POP email.
That strongly implies the problem is with the new firewalls.

Dovecot sees that the connection gets closed unexpectedly. Most likely
by the firewall that was inspecting the POP3 traffic and found something
it didn't like (or caused it to hit a bug or something).
The problem probably goes away if you enable SSL. Or maybe you could
configure the firewalls not to look inside the POP3 traffic.
