Its the IMAP server. imapd is the University of Washington IMAP server which doesn't like multiple connections. I believe if there are multiple simultaneous connections it will drop the original connection. The behaviour however is weird, I see it all of the time at work (RH62 server, with Evo and OE as clients) but my boss never sees it at home (imapd on Solaris). Maybe its a file locking issue which doesn't appear on Solaris builds.
