dovecot - Oct 2006 - Outlook "IMAP server closed connection"

Hi All,

Dovecot 1.0rc2.

Currently having a problem with Outlook clients popping up with the
error; 

"Your IMAP server has closed the connection. This may occur if you have
left the connection idle for to long"

I initially though this would be the imap_client_workarounds outlook-idle
option, but this is currently set and always has been.

I dont think this is a known issue that has been fixed with newer
releases, as we have rc2 on another server that does not have this
problem.

Any help thankfully recieved.

Regards,
Mark

If you're using SSL, there were problems with SSL connections hanging
sometimes. Fixed properly in rc6.

I can't really think of any other reasons for it from Dovecot side.
Other reasons could be eg. firewalls in the middle closing the
connection.
