Hello
ISSUE: Intermittently getting username and password authentication in
clients both OUTLOOK 2007 and latest Thunderbird, indicating that the
client is not authenticated with the server. Ie the username and
password dialogue constantly reappears.
This only appears as more users logged into the system.
TEMP FIX: Restart Dovecot.
