With SSL?
Now that you mention it, yes. I always use SSL. But the config is the same AFAICT.
Well, I guess it's this:
* SSL code rewrite which hopefully makes it work better than before. Seems to work correctly, but if you suddently have trouble with SSL connections this is likely the reason.
Could you try if using src/login-common/ssl-proxy-openssl.c from rc1 fixes this? The older Dovecot releases can be got from http://dovecot.org/releases/ Replacing ssl-proxy-openssl.c in rc2 with the one from rc1 did not fix

All our Thunderbird problems with save to sent folder have been fixed in Thunderbird 1.5.0.5 - both Windows and Mac.
We have always had very occasional Thunderbird "save to sent folder" problems (with IMAP over SSL, typically with an attachment) ... as of Thunderbird 1.5.0.4 this became frequent and repeatable. I could reproduce the problem with specific test messages in Thunderbird 1.5.0.4 against Dovecot's beta7, beta9, rc1 and rc2 (i.e. all the Dovecot releases I tried when looking at this issue).
While the problem may have become more frequent with the combo of Dovecot rc2 and Thunderbird 1.5.0.4, the bug had always been in Thunderbird to some extent. The Thunderbird bug seems fixed in 1.5.0.5.
