It's a known problem, and a bug in Outlook. If you try Outlook from the latest Office packages I believe that this bug has been fixed. It's indeed a protocol error from Outlook/Outlook Express, and not a Binc IMAP bug.So Outlook/Outlook Express uses IDLE mode, which is not supportet by binc, and fails to see that binc does not support it? Is that correct?
I think I read that the next version of binc should support idle-mode. What is the status of the development?
If you want to work around the problem, you can increase the idle timeout to some very high value, around the period that you can guarantee that users will access their account with their email client.
Has anyone tried this? What sould be a reasonable value?
But of course, once that's been said, there are many security problems with using older Outlook and Outlook Express, so there could also be the option of looking at alternative clients.I agree, but unforntunatly I cannot demand that my customers use specific programs or versions. I could just recommend...
