Dreamhost: 1 specific imap account will not stay sync'd between sessions

Problem

I have 3 imap accounts setup (all same server). I noticed with the 3rd account, its the only one that it gives an error which seems to only occur when Mailspring is restarted (as in closed and opened up).

Context

Trying to reconnect the account, just putting in the password fixes it until the session has to be restarted (restarting PC, closing program and opening). Removal and re-adding the specific account will make it work, but once again, once the session is closed and reopened, it goes back to the error where simply putting in the account password fixes it.

I should note that while it seems similar to the report of the “Gmail account keeps on disconnecting every time PC restarts” thread, when looking at some of the logs provided, it doesn’t appear to be the same issue.

The other 2 accounts work perfectly fine with same method as this account (imap). Attaching direct error according to sync issue.

Mailspring Version: 1.9.1-30ef802f
Platform: win32
Account State: sync_error
Account Provider: imap
IMAP Server: imap.dreamhost.com
SMTP Server: smtp.dreamhost.com
