This morning i'm noticing I'm missing some mails in various folders.

I thought my source might be offline, but it is not instead it says
"throttled".
What does that mean ? and how can I make it non-throttled ? :)
The throttling probably comes from Google's side. I use an SEO rank
checker called Advanced Web Ranking, which crawls Google, submitting
searches for terms you input and checking to see if your website is
ranking for those terms. The AWR developers limit the requests and
randomize their frequency, but nevertheless Google will sometimes
detect the crawling and throttle them, or cut your IP address off
altogether. I assume that they do this with e-mail accesses from IMAP
clients also. In the case of AWR, the software reports back to the
developers and they update the intervals in order to outsmart Google,
but with MailMate you'd just have to manually reset the frequency. You
might be exacerbating the problem if you are manually and obsessively
choosing Synchronize in MailMate or if you have another e-mail client
simultaneously synchronizing.
Yeah, I figured so much but I haven't really done anything differently
and I've been using this setup for over a year now.
Today the source is no longer throttled so not an urgent issue at this
point but damn it would be useful if Google would
provide a way to know how close one is to the limit. Right now it seems
to be a random ;/
Anyway, seems to be an issue between Google and me, not mailmate
specifically.
