Not for Netscape 6, I would expect.  You said it worked on 4.7x, but 
Netscape 6 should be the same as Mozilla.

No, I have plenty of folders to run into the problem.  Mozilla ONLY 
opens 5 connections, by default.  I initially set my MAXPERIP up to the 
MAXDAEMONS value, and found that Mozilla would only open 5 connections. 
  So then I went looking in prefs.js for a value of 5, and found it. 
Now, MAXPERIP is set to 5 and Mozilla's setting is 4, so that we should 
be cool.

My guess too. I haven't seen multiple connections from either Outlook or 
OE, but I only use one account at a time on those.
