Hello, Im using dovecot for ages and im happy..
but at now strange things happens:

mutt returns:
Error talking to localhost (Connection reset by peer)

so i started telnet:
alnagon ~ % telnet localhost 143
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to alnagon.localnet.cz.
Escape character is '^]'.
* OK Dovecot ready.
1 login karpi blablabla
1 OK Logged in.
Connection closed by foreign host.


Last line "Connection closed" appears immediatelly after logging..

log says:
