If I try to move a message from one IMAP folder to another, all works fine if the message is plain text. However, *sometimes* the message will not be transferred if it contains either an attachment and/or an HTML link (operation times-out).
Are you moving the message within the Dovecot, or are you moving between Dovecot and some local mailbox, or to some other IMAP server?
If it's within Dovecot, it's copied using IMAP's COPY command and I can't really think of why it would timeout there. What client are you using?
That's a good point Timo and one which I hadn't necessarily thought of! After thinking about it, I realize that these problems happen when I move messages from a commercial IMAP email provider (fastmail.fm) to my own, home server (running Dovecot 1.0.rc15 on Ubuntu). In all cases my client of choice is Thunderbird 1.x & 2.x run from an equal mix of Windows, Mac OS/X and Linux platforms.
