[Dovecot] Phone cannot receive mail suddenly
Starting at midnight Feb 1 my phone can no longer fetch mail from Dovecot. It endlessly connects and reconnects as you can see in the log below. I have restarted dovecot, the phone, deleted /home/robinmail/mail, all to no avail. I have turned on debug output but it does not tell me anymore. I can connect and see the folder using the KMail imap client. Any idea how I can proceed with this? The phone is 192.168.1.57 (LAN) or 202.91.19.194 (GPRS) and Dovecot and KMail are on 192.168.1.2.

Thanks for the tip. In fact, the problem was, as I thought, with the phone software. It got so confused it deleted the email account and when I recreated it everything worked again. I suspect something with the IMAP indices getting out of sync.
