    Hi,
    after the last ispconfig update i also changed the password of a mail account.
    Thunderbird errored in connecting and i updated to the new one and mails could be sent and received again.
    All good but then the next morning i couldn't send emails with that account, rest works.
    systemctl status dovecot listed some login errors.
    Restarting dovecot the problem is gone and i can send emails again.
    ca. 24h later the next morning same problem.
    I think i had the same problem before now that i write this down here, going to search through my previous postings.
    Any ideas why this happens?
