[Dovecot] Android ICS stock client and IMAP Capability issue.

[Massimiliano Cianelli]

I've noticed an error in my sentence about the change log, it was referred to blackberry.. not to Google

Google need only 'namespace', I will try to update the issue (due that every IMAP server that will respect the rfc will not work as expected in that condition).. pointing the problem on post login capability... and we will see when Google will want to fix it.
