You're basically back to the H4 situation, which didn't use this  
capability (which is also the reason why this suddenly breaks upon  
upgrading from H4 to H5). If bandwidth wasn't a problem in H4, it  
unlikely will be in H5 if you disable this capability. The version of  
Dovecot I'm using doesn't even have this (newer versions have) and it  
still works fine.

Just remember to remove this from imp/config/backends.local.php when  
Cyrus is fixed. This is also the fly in the ointment for this  
solution. Administrators will need to manually enable and disable the  
override of the capabilities and I expect that unless there is also a  
workaround for this bug in Horde_Imap_Client, there will be lots of  
people complaining about this. Many people don't care about reading  
the UPGRADING documents...

Best regards, Arjen
