IMAP Settings
Thunderbird
"Tools -> Account Settings -> Server Settings -> Advanced -> IMAP -> Maximum number of server connections to cache" defaults to 5. Courier IMAP servers default to 4 connections per TCP-IP address. This mismatch can cause apparent hangs, data loss, and messages to be downloaded instead of just headers. If you have one Courier account you need to lower the Thunderbird setting to 4 or less. If you have two Courier accounts you need to lower the setting in each account to 2 since it’s 4 connections per TCP-IP address, not per account. If you don’t know whether you have a Courier IMAP server it doesn’t hurt anything to lower the values.
If you have a local network with several PC’s connecting to the Internet through the same router/modem (e.g., DSL or cable) check whether each PC uses the same same TCP-IP address to access the Internet (NAT). In that case you could quickly reach the limit even if each PC is using only one account. One way to check is to go to a web page that reports what TCP-IP address was used (such as this one) from each PC.
