I agree and if memory serves Dovecot uses a default setting for max
connections if no setting is in the conf file. I can't remember the
number, but it's low, 10 or 20.

Sounds like a dovecot setting to me.
Vivek, are you seeing any error messages in the dovecot.log file?
Try adding this to your dovecot local.conf file (just to see if it
makes any difference for you):
protocol imap {
imap_client_workarounds = "delay-newmail"
# Maximum number of IMAP connections allowed for a user from each IP
address.
# NOTE: The username is compared case-sensitively.
mail_max_userip_connections = 20
}

The default setting of mail_max_userip_connections is 10.
Be careful with this setting though, as you may think it is something
that it's not. This setting limits the number of connections of each
user-ip combination. IMAP client software can establish multiple
connections to the server, and this setting controls that capability.
This setting is *not* a global connection limit.
This may provide some insight:
