Thanks mikec, sounds like another very plausible suggestion of yours! My router is indeed quite old (a Draytek Vigor 2600VG). However it's somewhat counter intuitive that this doesn't cause any issues with secure IMAP on my iPod Touch nor with ssh sessions I run into my N900. Oh well, the router is well overdue an upgrade; I'll report again once that's done.

I'm also wondering if this might be caused by connecting over TLS rather than SSL? If anyone knows how to change this w/o having to re-setup mailboxes from scratch, I would love hearing from you

Also any suggestion re "modest" debugging best practices?
  1. Is it better to kill running modest instances when trying to debug one?
  2. If so, how is this achieved?

Cheers,
Christian
