This is actually bad behaviour on the part of the IMAP client. Mark
Cripsin (one of the authors of the IMAP 4rev1 RFC) strongly suggests
against making the assumption that the server can handle multiple
connections at once. If you plan on support it, it should be
configurable. I quit using thunderbird because it was slow,
cumbersome, and had a fair few basic features missing. Though I'd like
to see it if we could have an option for multiple connections :)
