Well, it's Debian -- that's pretty close :-)

I saw this problem a couple of years ago,
fixed it (but don't remember how), but then an update to my server
caused it
to reappear.

I'll see if I can find anything interesting in there, and write it down. There seen to be numerous Debian/Dovecot problems...

But I don't think that's it -- some of these have rhost data, and some don't. OTOH, something I don't understand is doing this,

The culprit in my case was my iPad and it would check for e-mail every 10
minutes.

Nope. iPad doesn't do much email, but I'll look into it anyway.

Thanks for the clues.
