Hi there!
I upgraded to dovecot 2.4 from dovecot repo on my debian bookworm.

I modified the config for the needs for 2.4. My Fairemail could connect to
dovecot and receive emails via imap.
But thunderbird did not work.
I activated the debug-logging for thunderbird in shell and got this

Dovecot-log shows only this two lines on a login-try with thunderbird.

Feb 26 08:52:16 mail dovecot[204586]: imap-login: Login aborted: Connection
closed (no auth attempts in 0 secs) (no_auth_attempts): user=<>,
rip=172.30.0.1, lip=172.30.0.9, session=<ryQk2gYvMp+sHgAB>
Feb 26 08:52:16 mail dovecot[204586]: imap-login: Login aborted: Connection
closed (no auth attempts in 0 secs) (no_auth_attempts): user=<>,
rip=172.30.0.1, lip=172.30.0.9, session=<zR8k2gYvIp+sHgAB>

Other logins had a user and auth attempts... only from thunderbird it does not
work.

I also use dovecot-login for my exim4. And smtp-login was also not able.
Not even directly via openssl s_client.
I could connect, send ehlo, and when i sent AUTH LOGIN <base64-username-
passwor-string> and then it hangs.

I went back to dovecot 2.3, and thunderbird could login again, also smtp-login
works.


There seems something wrong in dovecot 2.4.

Have ldap-authentication. My bad, i deinstalled dovecot 2.4 and now i can not
create a conf with doveconf to add it here.


Hope you can help me.

Jakob
