portsentry and imap

I started portsentry in advanced stealth scan detection mode on a server
and since that, imap has sporadic trouble to connect (tested with imaps
and imap on evolution and outlook).

Is there a workaround for this?

TIA

You don't specifically mention whether you've included ports 143 and 993 in
your portsentry.conf.

here they go:

TCP_PORTS="1,11,15,79,111,119,540,635,1080,1524,20 00,5742,6667,
12345,12346,20034,27665,31337,32771,32772,32773,32 774,
40421,49724,54320"
UDP_PORTS="1,7,9,69,161,162,513,635,640,641,700,37 444,34555,31335,
32770,32771,32772,32773,32774,31337,54321"

Portsentry is in Advanced Mode:

ADVANCED_EXCLUDE_TCP="22,53,80,110,113,137,138,139 ,143,220,443,993"
# Default UDP route (RIP), NetBIOS, bootp broadcasts.
ADVANCED_EXCLUDE_UDP="520,517,518,513,138,137,123, 68,67,53"
