Hi, I am experiencing a quite irritating problem with netscape and courier imap. There is some sort of bug in one or the other that doesn't allow you to connect to INBOX at all if you have interval mail checking enabled and the interval checking happens before you manually open your INBOX. When it gets into this state, it does not prevent opening folders that are subfolders of INBOX, just the main INBOX. Has anybody else experienced this problem? The only way I have found to connect to the INBOX is to close all instances of netscape, open it again, and connect to the INBOX before the auto mail checking interval occurs.

Check to see how many concurrent connections are open at that time. The default imapd configuration settings allow a maximum of four concurrent connections from the same IP address - this is set in the configuration file. I don't see how that is a factor, four should be plenty. I've never really seen Communicator open more than two simultaneous connections, and the extra connection from the checking process makes it three.

I have my concurrent connections set to 40 from the same ip address. I watched and seen that there was only one connection open from my client. I don't understand why it only happens if the auto checker checks the mail before you press the Get Msg button.
