Be aware if you have any Thunderbird clients the Courier .deb needs the MAXIPPER changed. Usually Thunderbird wants 5 connections per IP, the Courier .deb defaults to a max of 2 per IP. Thunderbird has a bug and cannot deal with a server that properly refuses to supply as many connections per IP as Thunderbird wants. It is likely safe to raise the MAXIPPER quite high (the limit is for a potential DOS attack).
Incidentally, does anyone know how to change the corresponding setting for the Cyrus IMAP server? I run cyrus on my server and am unable to have Thunderbird save sent messages (especially if I sing them or send more than one per session). I have tried setting the number of connections lower in the Thunderbird "advanced server settings." However, it has not worked. I am thinking that telling cyrus to accept more connections will solve it, but I have yet been unable to to find a reference for it. -Roberto -- Roberto C. Sanchez http://familiasanchez.net/~sanchezr
