Yes, this seems to help me a lot too with other issues I've seen with

I just set the threads down to one, and it all seems to better so far.



You can also increase the number of threads you can connect to the IMAP system. Put something like: MAXDAEMONS=40 into your imap config file.

This has gotta be better than changing the settings on EVERY client's
firefox that uses the daemon!


Agreed. It's also handy to have multiple command threads when you want to do something like run a Search and do other email things while that's running, for example.


What's curious is that I had already set MAXDAEMONS=40 in the IMAP configuration file for Courier. And I was still experiencing problems.

Thunderbird recently seemed to forget that I set the threads down to 1 (it was reset to the default 5) and I started seeing problems again. Which went away which I changed it back to 1.

So there's something going on. I suspect Thunderbird at this point. However, I should do some packet captures to see what's really happening.

I don't remember the beginning of this thread, but this sounds like the standard MAXPERIP problem. Courier defaults to 4, while Thunderbird defaults to 5. You need to have the Thunderbird setting <= the Courier setting. Grep for MAXPERIP in /etc/courier and you can see what's going on.
