Switch from STARTTLS to SSL (port 993), KAV6 ignores this port.

This bug is in KAV6 since some time, but they seem to ignore it.

"Logged out" means that client issued a LOGOUT command. Do you get any  
other kinds of Disconnected: reasons?

On the server side Doveco does not report any kind of error. I just ab an
unusual rate of "IMAP(xxx...@): Disconnected: Logged out" entries.


http://wiki.dovecot.org/Debugging/Rawlog won't work for disconnections.


Given that I am NOT sure about the ethernet an firewall performance, how can I
trace this problem?


dump/trace the connection before and after the firewall to check out, what 
packets the clients sends and what are forwarded by the firewall.


Also make sure you trace all connections from the client, maybe the 
firewall drops if there are more than x connections.


If the connections breaks at "STARTTLS" command, try switching to SSL.
