Yes, seems to work. (-n 5 -> -n 50 - no problems any more).
Has anybody tried to use -c -t (c = caching, t=timeout for cache). What about users
changing the password ....

Hi,

I'm using cyrus-imapd (now 2.4.x) and Thunderbird. The problem is, when I click fast on the e-mails, I often get the "Login to server foo.bar failed" (when I click like one -email per 3 seconds everything is fine). My password is okay, so I just press "Cancel". I live with this problem for a really long time, and I can say the this is specific to the TB: it doesn't happen in Outlook. I've read a lot about this, and, besides the mailbox being improperly configured and failing authrization 100% of the time (which is not my case), there's an urban legend that TB uses by default  5 concurrent connections to the IMAP server (and this part is true), while cyrus permits less. But the thing is, even with 1 connecton configured in TB (in advanced settings), I still get this error when clicking messages fast. No errors are logged on the cyrus side, just the normal log stating that I was allowed to examine my mailbox.

Is there any way to get rid of these boring messages ?

Cyrus ML may not be the correct place to ask for this, but BT/Mozilla community just gives me futile answers like "are you sure you type your passwords right" and so on.


Thanks.

Eugene.
