Have you tried removing the tick from "Check for new messages in all
folders" in the mail account properties under the "IMAP" tab.
Also, I'mm sure other people are see O/E report new messages when there
aren't any.
It appears the O/E requests how many "UNSEEN" messages are in the INBOX.
It appears that a possible cure for this is to change the behaviour of O/E
bye changing the request from "UNSEEN" to "RECENT".
I have done this by using a hex-editor and modify the MSOE.DLL which resides
in "C:\Program Files\Outlook Express".
Search for the string UNSEEN and replace it with RECENT.
Cheers,
Larry.

Subject: [courier-users] OE timeouts (once again)
I'm sure I'm not the only one getting tired of this issue, but..
I tried a couple of things to at least minimize those annoying O/OE
'server has terminated..' popup's:
In imap/config.h, I changed timeout from 60 to #define SOCKET_TIMEOUT
120 .
In /etc/imapd, I changed nof connections to MAXPERIP=10 .
In OE setup, I changed 'Server timeout' to 5 minutes.
It all seems to have helped a bit, at least I get fewer complains now.
I realize SOCKET_TIMEOUT doesn't seem to have much to do with the
problem, but I was looking for anything resembling connectivity
problems.
Anything else which might influence those connections?
Feel free to disect my attempts :-
