I have tested thunderbird trunk now with two different Imap server. Thunderbird against Dovecot works as expected, emails are downloaded to local Imap folders and everything is fine.
Thunderbird against Zarafa downloads emails but when finished the local Imap folders are reset to a very small size, so emails are not kept. This causes thunderbird to download over and over again. I have started completely fresh with thunderbird trunk. Anything I can to help debugging? I.e. this issue is not fixed...
