I have seen 30mn ago that I had miss configured many things. I had 8 folders in class 2, and class 2 was set to push; this means my class 2 was using 8 connexions (one per push folder). > K-9 may hold connections differently with on wifi vs. cell data, especially for me, because tasker removes the SYNC flag when I loose wifi. > but > with wifi it holds a connection open while you have it open (your > push/sync settings may effect this).

Server closes connexion only when heart beat is too low (or too many beats have been missed).

Maybe ... if ... I close K9 gently (not even sure we can). Force killing K9 does not help. Switching wifi off does not help. I have to wait at least 10mn to be able to connect with TB. The only quick fix I have found was to login Gmail-webmail, and in the DETAIL link bottom right, I can close all active connexions. The list given does not give all actual connexions (Gkrellm never appears there); but I can kill every one, and then TB will work. > > So, I believe you are simply running into an issue with the stateful > way that IMAP (*Interactive*MailAccessProtocol) opens and holds > connections, and that gmail is now seemingly constraining that > count.

Did not intend to send you copies of messages. I ticked "original author"; I thought it meant ME as author of first message of discussion; obviously was "author of message I answer to". -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the K-9 Mail Users List.
