FIRST: do not top-post and NOT reply off-list (no i refuse to repair the thread)

if he would know that these are different things hewould not write "This entails errors when trying to send e-mails after this auto logout"

NO, NO and NO - this entails NOT sending errors!

Mr Reindl

Of course Nicolas knows these are different issues! He wants to know how to avoid the first issue, and merely points out why he desperately wants that fix.

Hi list!

I'm writing because of an issue I'm having with my Postfix-Dovecot installation. Everything's working fine but when an IMAP client is idle for some time, Dovecot automatically logs it out.

Jul 26 14:01:16 mail dovecot: imap(nicolas@devels.es): Disconnected: Logged out bytes=1271/7439

This entails errors when trying to send e-mails after this auto logout, such as:

host devels.es[91.215.158.237] said: 550-Please turn on SMTP Authentication in your mail client, or login to the 550-IMAP/POP3 server before sending your message.

Which result in a very annoying and continuous proccess of restarting my mail client.

errors while send messages have really nothing to do with any imap-timeout/logout, these are completly different things!
