TB3 seems to be fine without extra capability stuff.

Does it still ask for the CAPABILITY command? One solution could
actually be that Dovecot just stops giving the full CAPABILITY before
logging in. I did some tests for this recently, and it looked like as
long as the capability is forcibly pushed to the client after login,
most clients will use it. v1.2+ already does this when proxying to an
IMAP server with different capabilities than what were advertised for
the client previously. I haven't tried it with Outlook though, that
could be the one client that ignores it..
Well,

as from the TB debug logs, both versions use the capability command before the login sequence. I couldn't think of any reason why not to give the capabilities when being asked for, but I don't know the RFC's or whatever else is dealing with that kind of problem.

In my opinion, dovecot should give capabilities, regardless if before or after login sequence. What would be the problem of it or why would it be intented to be removed. It would actually just break with a rather common client and change behaviour to all previous versions.
