Yes and no.  I'm sure you're right as you know much more about IMAP
than I do, but my concerns are:

1) As you say in the ticket - it's amazing how many people are running
around with "broken" imap servers - given the number of different IMAP
servers that were mentioned, makes me concerned that it's not the IMAP
server - but rather the way it's being spoken to.
2) Corroborating that my IMAP server has been running without an issue
for 2 years without filling the disk with log files - and now all of a
sudden since Horde5.1 it's done it twice?  That doesn't feel kosher.
3) in fact my log files are not over-sized.  Running du /var | sort
-rh | head -10 didn't show a single file in the /var/log path, and
after a reboot, my disk is back to 16% full.  Google seems to think
this is a unclosed file handle.  If that's a Dovecot bug, I find it
strange that I'm only discovering it now an b) that Timo hasn't fixed
it yet..
