MAS Version 4. We have recently had a rash of instances where we are Maxing the number of available IMAP4 connections. Most outlook clients are using 2008 or 2010 and we provide connectivity to voice mail through the Outlook IMAP connection.
In the past we have had sparatic issues maxing the number of connections, but beginning last week we had almost daily incidents of this occurring and had to restart the server (in some cases 3 or 4 times consecutively) in order to clear the connections.
We know, at least in part, that some of this may have to do with users starting Outlook and never logging out of the machine or mail for periods of time, but our infrastructure makes it very difficult to identify where this may be taking place. Anyone in the group have any experience with this and how to possibly resolve? Any assistance on the issue would be greatly appreciated.
