Mark, Thank you for the response.
The question relates to my users are getting "IMAP connection timeout" messages in their Outlook 2003 email client, not for the GroupWise client. It is an annoyance to these Outlook 2003 users and generates helpdesk calls :-(. I read in the IMAP documentation that the respective protocol specifications (POP, IMAP and HTTP) require the server to keep an idle connection open for a minimum amount of time. The default times are 10 minutes for POP, 30 minutes for IMAP, 3 minutes for HTTP. At the risk of being repetitious here, is there a way in UW IMAPD to set this default idle setting for IMAP to 0 or make the default idle time longer? Does the 2400g version of imapd have a work around to automatically reporting "fake" new mail after 29 minutes? Thanks in advance.

You seem to use Novell Groupwise; I know nothing about that program other than its name.
