Ok, the patch doesn't actually fix the bug.  It appeared to in that
after running the server with the patch applied client certificate
validation succeeded, however, it appears this bug is actually
intermittent as, even with the patched package, the server is now
complaining that the client has not provided a valid SSL certficate.

This is definitely not true as the certificates, and in general
verification of client-side certificates work, even with the same
Thunderbird client, with postfix, exim, and cyrus-imapd.

In short dovecot has some bug that causes verfication of certificates
present by the client to fail, however the bug is not easy to debug as
sometimes config changes work, but later, running the same config,
things fail again.

There appears to be some sort of caching even across client and server
restarts that is coming into play and confusing the issue.

Anyone know of SSL caching issues with Window 8.1?

Regards,

Daniel
