I've just tried this patch, but it didn't fix the problem for me. I've noticed a very strange login user (login user: hë¿¿²þ^D^H@ ^H^HZM-^P^H^H ). Is it my bad or is someone having the same "garbage"?
Here is the log: Apr 10 10:22:44 909 dovecot[65842]: auth(default): client in: AUTH 1 PLAIN service=IMAP secured lip=127.0.0.1 rip=127.0.0.1 resp=<hidden> Apr 10 10:22:44 909 dovecot[65842]: auth(default): client out: OK 1 user=someuser Apr 10 10:22:44 909 dovecot[65842]: auth(default): master in: REQUEST 26 65943 1 Apr 10 10:22:44 909 dovecot[65842]: auth(default): master out: USER 26 someuser system_user=someuser uid=1015 gid=1015 home=/home/someuser Apr 10 10:22:44 909 dovecot[65842]: imap(someuser): Effective uid=1015, gid=1015 Apr 10 10:22:44 909 dovecot[65842]: imap(someuser): maildir: data=/home/someuser/Maildir Apr 10 10:22:44 909 dovecot[65842]: imap(someuser): maildir: root=/home/someuser/Maildir, index=/home/someuser/Maildir, control=, inbox= Apr 10 10:22:44 909 dovecot[65842]: imap-login: Login: user=<someuser>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured Apr 10 10:22:44 909 dovecot[65842]: auth(default): client in: AUTH 1 PLAIN service=IMAP secured lip=127.0.0.1 rip=127.0.0.1 Apr 10 10:22:44 909 dovecot[65842]: auth(default): client out: CONT 1 Apr 10 10:22:44 909 dovecot[65842]: auth(default): client in: CONT<hidden> Apr 10 10:22:44 909 dovecot[65842]: auth(default): plain(someuser,127.0.0.1): login user: hë¿¿²þ^D^H@ ^H^HZM-^P^H^H Apr 10 10:22:45 909 dovecot[65842]: auth(default): client out: FAIL 1 user=someuser Apr 10 10:22:45 909 dovecot[65842]: imap-login: Disconnected: user=<someuser>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured Apr 10 10:22:45 909 dovecot[65842]: imap(someuser): Disconnected: Logged out

Probably because of the "authenticate plain" bug: http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot-cvs/2006-April/005378.html
I'll release beta6 soon..
