Yup, connects instantly, displays mails by threads, etc, the same for any
other application and setup.

About Kronolith, I read some docs this night and created
backends.local.php into the IMP conf dir where I added 3 lines I did not
knew about into the imap section: 'hordeauth' => true, 'cache' => 'sql',
'acl' => true,
that made the calendar page now appearing on screen (instead of a blank
page), but I still have the "error when connecting with the server"
popup, same as for IMP.

Hmm, I forgot to say I'm using nginx.
