Anytime I see something like this, I suspect that the server (in this case, Courier IMAP) is attempting an ident lookup on the client, or is attempting a reverse DNS lookup. I suspect the latter is more likely. For kicks, try temporarily adding an entry for your windows client to the /etc/hosts file on the Debian/Courier server. If that fixes the problem then I would look for ways to disable reverse DNS lookups in Courier.
