[Dovecot] Server Timed Out: Outlook Express

[Jackie Hunt]

Hi all,

We just started running Dovecot this fall here on campus v 1.0.  I've
started getting some trouble reports from users.  An Outlook Express
users reported seeing the "Server has not responded in 60 seconds"
messages.  Waiting longer doesn't help, he has to stop/start Outlook
Express to get connected again.  Also have a Thunderbird user who is
seeing that type of behavior first thing in the morning after being
logged in all night.  He has to stop/restart Thunderbird.

Also, have had some reports of "disconnected" showing up on the 
Outlook2007 status bar.

I've looked at the Dovecot log, and don't see any errors.  I do
see lots of "Disconnected", "Disconnected in IDLE" and "Disconnected:
Logged Out".  These last two seem normal, if I just see "Disconnected"
is that a flag that we're losing connections abnormally? 

I know version 1.0.3 is out.  I've looked at the changes, and the
only one I can see that might be related to what we are seeing is
the IDLE commmand fix.  Was hoping for some advice on whether upgrading
might resolve these issue.  

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Jackie
