No, you shouldn't. - unless you'd like to cause unnecessary network traffic.

It depends on the amount of external pop mailboxes to sync. I do it 
every five minutes on 30 mailboxes in one case, in another I do it every 
30 seconds for a single collection box (multiple users, multiple 
domains). Mail isn't a realtime system. In most cases it would be 
acceptable to have sync intervals of say 15 minutes. The primary goal is 
that the mail arrives 'soon'.

Furthermore, a pop session takes time to establish as the servers must 
validate the user and count the mail in the box, and ....
I guess most of the time the sync with 1 second interval couldn't be 
done because there's still a lock by the previous session.

Do you have a reason to define a shorter interval than the 120 seconds? 
Then you must work in a really stressful environment ....  ;-)

Regards

Martin
