Outlook Express and IMAP connections - thousands of them?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi everyone,

I've been using Outlook Express with Cyrus now for several years (since 2002), have set it up on many different computers, and have never run into this before. I have one user who is also using OE, and their OE is doing something very strange - it's disconnecting and reconnecting for every folder it checks, leading to (litreally) thousands of lines a day indicating a new login:

Dec 14 12:02:25 polaris imap[26772]: login: clientHost [69.xxx.xxx.xxx] <user>@tibbs.ca plaintext User logged in Dec 14 12:02:25 polaris imap[26170]: login: clientHost [69.xxx.xxx.xxx] <user>@tibbs.ca plaintext User logged in Dec 14 12:02:26 polaris imap[26170]: login: clientHost [69.xxx.xxx.xxx] <user>@tibbs.ca plaintext User logged in Dec 14 12:02:26 polaris imap[26772]: login: clientHost [69.xxx.xxx.xxx] <user>@tibbs.ca plaintext User logged in Dec 14 12:02:27 polaris imap[26772]: login: clientHost [69.xxx.xxx.xxx] <user>@tibbs.ca plaintext User logged in

... and so on. Looking at the telemetry logs, there doesn't seem to be anything "unusual," or any errors or anything (see below).

Is there a setting somewhre that I don't know aobut that would affect this?
