Ok ive set it to 6 will report back. I also contacted my host asking how long I have until the idle connection closes and they suggested the issue is with k9 not at their end:
Thank you for contacting our Help Desk. I reviewed your case and checked the list with currently opened processes. This information can be found in yourcPanel -> Left Sidebar -> Process List: And if you click on the Full Process List you should be able to see that most of the processes there are Dovecot ones. These are the Mail Clients currently connected to your hosting account and if you examine the data there you will notice that some of them are IDLE for a long time: Code: 650 dovecot/imap [[email protected] 52.0.210.163 IDLE] 23904 kB 3900 kB 22506 secs As you can see the Mail Client connected to the email account [email protected] for more than 6 and a half hours. Which indicates that such connections are not closed from a server-side software or configuration. Such IDLE settings are usually set up in the Mail Client in question and thus I suggest you to review the settings used in your Mail Client. For more information regarding the settings of the Mail Client you should ask in the appropriate Support Section of the Client's website On 16 Nov 2015 07:28, at 07:28, Nadir Husain <[email protected]> wrote: >no it does not mean it will check every twelve minutes. it just means >if the port is disconnected by your 3G or wifi provider it will try to >maintain an open connection. i am not really well versed with how or >why that happens but i had a similar problem and then i switched the >time to 6 minutes and now am getting push emails very reliably which is >not the same as k9 syncing every 6 minutes. perhaps someone with more >knowledge on this subject can explain the phenomena better. anyhow i >would like to know if these changes helped. thanks > >-- >-- >You received this message because you are subscribed to the K-9 Mail >Users List. >To post to this group, send email to [email protected] >To unsubscribe, email [email protected] >To report an issue with K-9 Mail, visit >http://code.google.com/p/k9mail/issues/list >For more options, visit this group at >http://groups.google.com/group/k-9-mail > >--- >You received this message because you are subscribed to a topic in the >Google Groups "K-9 Mail" group. >To unsubscribe from this topic, visit >https://groups.google.com/d/topic/k-9-mail/AnqBB2iunQc/unsubscribe. >To unsubscribe from this group and all its topics, send an email to >[email protected]. >For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the K-9 Mail Users List.
