Mr. Davide,
Running XMail in debug mode (--debug -Dm) I see that webmail open 1
connection (POP3 Connection, not SMTP).
After that, if there is any e-mail with attachment, browser looks like
freezed but still connected.
We are doing some tests with XMail because we want to change our atual
pop3/smtp system.
We use IMP for webmail. Someone else has the same (XMail and IMP)?
Thanks
Edinilson

Look, if We were speaking about SMTP, I could say You that XMail is about
60%
faster than sendmail.
But We're speaking about POP3 that is a kind of stupid protocol where
there's
nothing to be fast.
If You've tried with the same line conditions, and I think so, I could bet
my
brand new car that :
1) You've another POP3 connection open onto the same account
2) Your web mail client try to open multiple connections with the same
account
XMail support, and force ( see pop3locks ), one simultaneous connection per
account and what's happening is that before open the new connection it has
to
wait that the old one timed out.
Someone else had this kind of problem ?
