The timeout we face is that sometimes even small messages take 20-40 seconds to open (i. e. Tunderbird 2 on Windows 7). Or connection to the mail server timeouts.
Could you give me a few tips where can I look in order to detect the possible reason for these timeouts.
Have you looked at if during the 20-40 seconds the disk I/O is high? If the problem is on server and not on network, it might be helpful to strace the process that's taking a long time to reply. Then it could show if it's mainly waiting for some system call to finish. http://wiki.dovecot.org/Debugging/ProcessTracing
