imap issue

Hi

I have setup phone and ipad and desktop PC to receive email via IMAP connection.
I keep getting from time to time authentication errors.

Need to retype password before it works again.

Thanks

Check dovecot logs over this.

Also what client causes the issue? PC? Mobile ? Both?

Yes, this can be edited.
Also, this post I found gives some idea as to why it happens: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.imap.dovecot/73561
