Hi Everyone,

I'm new in dovecot - so first at all, thank you for amazing work. I'd flicked through dovecot code and it's very accurate.

I'm trying to use dovecot with a little bit non-standard configuration: dovecot installed under /my_path/dovecot, all users has the same home directory /my_path/var/mail and have to access all mailboxes/folders located there.

But I have troubles with it:

Right after start dovecot start spamming log with

Error: dict: dict client: Broken handshake

besides of GB's of lines above I have:

Error: imap-login: Timeout waiting for handshake from auth server. my pid=18493, input bytes=0

And of course nothing works.

Thank you! -Dmitry
