Thanks for the info!

So, is there any known safe Outlooks out there (we are using fairly stock Office 2000 releases).. or, is there a courier setting out there that will kill off numnber IMAP connections from outlook before simply refusing additional connections?

We are noticing a high frequency of Outlook just refusing to connect to a courier IMAP server after some time of being open.. usually with a completely unhelpful (unable to connect to server with an "unknown" error). Or, sometimes a unable to find server error.

If we quit Outlook and restart it, it will work fine. I suppose it's typical MS reboot and it will work logic, but, it's annoying.

When this happens, take a look at your open network connections. Certain versions of Lookout like to keep opening new logins to the IMAP server, without closing the existing logins, basically a time-delayed denial of service attack.

The default Courier-IMAP configuration allows no more than four simultaneous server connections from the same IP address. Additional connections from the same IP address will be turned down.
