I apologise, I just realised that I hadn't included that information.

The server is a current Ubuntu Edgy Box.  It has Dovecot 1.0rc2.  I now 
see there have been 25 rc's since then.  (Yikes!)  So I guess I should 
be complaining upstream.

I did search the net for several weeks, however, and found no mention of 
this problem, even in the Dovecot wiki or mailing list archive.  So if 
you say it's fixed, then I'll put something in the wiki to that effect 
and go badger the Ubuntu guys for an upgrade. :-)

Cheers,
Tudor.
