Hi guys,

I have a client who is using Entourage to check this POP3 account and is
claiming that every once and awhile it will just stop checking messages.
I was finally able to track this down in the logs files to his client
being disconnected with the message: I/O error disconnect.

Now looking at the source code, this error is coming from line 687 of
pop3dserver.c (Courier-IMAP-4.1.1):

        if (ferror(f)) {
                /* Oops! All we can do is drop the connection */
                fprintf(stderr, "ERR: I/O error while reading message
file %s: %s\n",
                        msglist_a[i]->filename, strerror(errno));
                acctout("INFO: I/O error disconnect");
                exit(1);
        }

Does anyone have any guesses as to what might cause this error? It seems
to only happen when he is downloading large e-mails (e-mails with
attachments).

He can check his e-mail later and it works fine -- the real issue seems
to be that if this happens, Entourage gives up and stops checking his
e-mail until he restarts the program.

Thanks,
Jeff
