[Dovecot] IMAPS - timeout while moving mails

Hi,

I'm using Dovecot v1.0.beta5 (NetBSD 3.0, i386) and Mozilla Thunderbird
1.5 (XP, i386). My dovecot.conf is pretty simple, because I just use
dovecot for me as the only user.

However, when I try to move a 'larger' amount of mails (>200) from my
local TB-mbox to the remote IMAPS-storage, the process hangs after about
150 - 160 transferred mails (the 'blocking' mail is _never_ the same). I
don't have the slightest clue why - there is nothing in the logs - even
if I turn 'verbose_ssl' on. After a while, TB tells me, that the server
timed out and dovecot says:

"imap(petar): Disconnected"

Usually - if I close my MUA correctly - dovecot says:

"imap(petar): Disconnected: Logged out"


Is somebody maybe experiencing something similar?


Thank you very much & with kind regards,
