[Dovecot] Problem with Thunderbird hang, multiple retry to .Sent/.Draft
I have begun havening a problem when sending or when Thunderbird tries
to write copy to .Draft. Usually only happens when the message is
longer. While in the Thunderbird editor will say "Copying message to
Draft folder". It will try indefinitely. The copy is successful but it
looks like it is believed to have failed so its retried. Same then
happens when sending. Send happens but then hangs on copy to .Sent. Copy
works, but apparently is not seen and just keeps getting retried. If you
let it go hundreds of copies of message end up in .Sent and .Draft. Have
logs from Thunderbird and rawlog but they are huge and don't want to
post them to the list until after determining there is no quick answer
for this behavior.

No error messages are logged any place. I think Thunderbird asks for the
copy and then verifies it. It seems dovecot never confirms they copy
happened.
