Title: Error: Connection dropped by IMAP server with dovecot

Hi there --

I am running SquirrelMail version 1.4.8-5.el5.centos.10 on a CentOS 5.6 64-bit distribution

with MailScanner 4.83.4, Sendmail 8.13.8/8.13.8, and Dovecot 1.0.7 release. All applications
listed, with the exception of MailScanner, are the packaged versions that come bundled with
the operation system.

The server is a rebuilt and updated version of an older Fedore Core 7 32-bit mail server. During the

rebuilding process all /var/spool/mail folders, as well as all user home directories, were restored
from disk backup. This included rebuilding the /etc/passwd and /etc/group files, as well as verifying
that ownership and permissions for the users' files were kept intact.

One user is having problems connecting via the SquirrelMail interface to his e-mail. Whenever he
tries to connect, he gets the following error message:

Error: Connection dropped by IMAP server with dovecot

I have tested another user account via the SquirrelMail interface, and that user is able to connect
without issue. I confirmed the presence of dovecot.index, dovecot.index.cache, and dovecot.index.log
files in the problem user's <HOME DIR>/mail/.imap/INBOX folder. 

The /var/log/maillog files do not list any apparent error messages with SquirrelMail. Does anyone have
any idea as to what other steps I need to take to correct this issue?

Thanks.
