It doesn't break completely, but it leaves replication shaken:

1) replication is pretty much delayed in some cases (monitored on both instances)
2) replication doesn't become completed after 15 minutes in some cases

Returning to 2.3.6 completes these hanging replications instantaneously.

Yes.

I do not compile from source, I'm using FreeBSD's ports. Thus I tried to put this patch at the desired location to become used whilst compiling dovecot. But this patch fails to become applied, most probably due to incorrect whitespaces. As I do not have access to the dovecot's source tree, I do not have a clue who the ASCII version of the patch is. Thus, could you mail it to my as an attachment?

Regards,
Michael
