dovecot (+sendmail) no logra enviar el correo electrónico a Thunderbird

Question

No puedo recibir correos electrónicos en mi aplicación de correo electrónico (thunderbird).

Utilizo 143 Imap para conectarme, lo probé con telnet y pude iniciar sesión. Pero si selecciono la bandeja de entrada con telnet me devuelve "0 EXISTE"

al igual que:

telnet 192.168.1.13 143
Trying 192.168.1.13...
Connected to sub.domain.net.
