Hi,
I can't seem to get dovecot to work. When I connect with thunderbird, tbird complains that it can't find the settings for my email. When I connect with evolution, it seems to go through all the motions but it doesn't pick up the waiting messages. Those messages are marked Status: O s if it had read them.
The log file for tbird looks like this:

The log file with evolution is:
