Our Microsoft Outlook 2002 users are encountering the situation described in the UW-IMAP FAQ:
7.19 Why did my POP or IMAP session suddenly disconnect? The syslog has the message: Killed (lost mailbox lock) user=... host=... We do see these entries in our syslog. The FAQ gives two possible explanations: 1. Certain poorly-designed clients routinely open multiple sessions to the same mailbox; 2. Another cause is a background "check for new mail" task which does its work by opening a POP session to server every few seconds. Anybody know which of these is the culprit with Outlook? Is there a work- around that will spare these users the annoyance of the "Your IMAP server has closed the connection" boxes? (Like a feature they can turn off to stop Outlook from opening multiple sessions, maybe?) -- Kai Lanz [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ For information about this mailing list, and its archives, see: http://www.washington.edu/imap/c-client-list.html ------------------------------------------------------------------
