Yes non TLS seems stable now (all clients I serve mail to). Only tested on
maildir conf. It is now running without issues for 2 hours. Anyway tomorrow
morning I'll confirm this point when problematic clients go back to office
(they have just stopped checking mail).

TLS only gives problems with big mailboxes (+500 messages). And a small
separate issue with OE4 that I'll describe on another mail.

umm I'm now remembering something related with
SSL_MODE_ACCEPT_MOVING_WRITE_BUFFER and a similar behaviour I found some
months ago while playing with TLS ... (uff not sure what the solution was)
