I've heard of Sieve, but although I've been managing Internet mail

use it and I don't know about it.
I do. Heavily. That's the reason i'd like MM to handle many* open
(IDLE) connections well, but MM keeps crashing on me. Daily, no,
hourly :(
That is certainly not acceptable. I can see that you have allowed
MailMate to send 6 crash reports with r4132 (and that's out of 8
reported in total by ~130 users using r4132).
After taking a look at these crash reports I'm pretty sure that at least
5 of those 6 crashes are related to MailMate running out of so-called
file descriptors. In other words, MailMate cannot handle such a large
number of IDLE connections within system limits (and fails to handle it
gracefully).
I really hope those crashes will be under control someday...
I'll note that I should look into making MailMate handle file descriptor
limits more gracefully.
