I know some servers send back continuation responses (“+”) to keep the connection alive and avoid triggering the timeout, but I don't kown Dovecot 2.2.13 behaves regarding that. I changed the default socket timeout to 180s, could you try again? If that solves your problem, I think the proper solution would be to change to the socket options to use keepalive probes either at the TCP level or higher at the IMAP layer. """]]
