The problem comes in when somebody tries to access the same
mailbox simultaneously using both protocols. This can easily happen if
somebody happens to leave an MUA running on one computer and then tries
to look at their mail from a different computer. For this situation,
you need make sure that both servers respect each other's locking,
otherwise the mailbox is likely to get corrupted. This means that it
is often better if the two belong to the same package.
