Description Shmerl 2023-07-10 02:51:49 UTC
Recently my IMAP server started erroring out when using KMail with such error:

    Login failed, server replied: A000004 NO Too many open connections (50 of 50 for ...)

Support suggested to reduce the setting that limits cached server connections. Thunderbird has something like that.
See: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1082511

I tried to find such setting in Kmail / Akonadi, but didn't find one. Is it possible to configure and if not, can such setting be added?

My current setup:
* Kmail / Akonadi: 22.12.3

Thanks.
