[Dovecot] Problems with Outlook clients after a migration

Hi,
I'm doing the final tests before I migrate my 10000 users from RHEL 4 +
dovecot 1.1.20 to RHEL5 + dovecot 1.2.11, and I'm having some serious problems
with outlook 2007 clients disconnecting very often.
In dovecot's log I see lot of connects and disconnects from these clients (as
oposed to my kmail, that just connects once when I come in and disconnects
when I shut it off). After unchecking the "chek every X minutes" thing in
outlook I get fewer of those -while functionality remains-, but the main
problem still persists: every now and then (more or less 30 mins), the client
disconnects, and sometimes the client goes offline. This didn't happen with my
previous setup.
I use the outlook-idle workaround, but it doesn't seem to make any difference.
Any ideas?
