Hi ,
i use dovecoz 1.1.4 with TLS / SSL only.
i takes up to ~10 seconds that Thunderbird login and send the mail.

"send the mail" has nothing to do with Dovecot, but with the SMTP
server, such as Exim (which may try ident queries that your client
possibly firewalls) or Postfix.

true, but if Marko's Thunderbird is configured to save sent messages on the IMAP server, the sending process will complete, from the client point of view, when the message has been stored on the IMAP server. So the change in Dovecot might cause a perceived slowdown. Also, with other IMAP server (no idea if this applies to Dovecot) you could even have the sending process start by copying the message in a particular outbox without direct interaction between the MUA and the SMTP server.
