Quoting Timo Sirainen tss@iki.fi:
After trying this out for a while, I think I know what causes it. The difference with Dovecot and UW-IMAP is that UW-IMAP allows only a single connection to the mailbox (each new connection killing the old one), while Dovecot allows multiple.
Actually, it only allows one write-enabled connection to the mailbox. You can open as many read-only connections as you want, but only one write connection. A second write connection will kill the first write connection.
