I can confirm that I have never had problems with TB + dovecot, and I can tell you that many people use this combination. so if you have a problem, then it's a local issue. Can you try with a TB from another network? this is to make sure you don't have a misbehaving FW/proxy/whatever in your path. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
