Hi,
With latest 2.3 -git (and 2.3.0 release), I'm running into this error with Thunderbird:
"An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: 5.5.4 Unsupported mail BODY type. Please verify that your email address is correct in your account settings and try again."
This is fatal and means Thunderbird cannot use the submission service - fortunately I can revert back to a native Postfix service which works.
Here's a tcpdump of the conversation:
thunderstorm /etc/dovecot/conf.d # tcpdump -A port 587
dropped privs to tcpdump tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 262144 bytes

Curiously enabling rawlog doesn't capture this error, which is why I used tcpdump above. The logs from it like this:

This with:
# Write protocol logs for relay connection to this directory for debugging #submission_relay_rawlog_dir = submission_relay_rawlog_dir = /run/dovecot/rawlogs/
Is this a separate but unrelated problem with rawlog support in this the submission? I would have expected it to capture the full conversation log including any protocol errors and failures like this.
