Quoting Joseba Torre:
two days ago we talked about this same feature. Having plenty of outlooks around, preconfigured to check mail every minute, this would be a great feature for us.
Outlook's default is 10min, AFAIR.
Anyway, what do you expect dovecot to do if somebody's logging in too soon? Delay until the right time has come? Rejecting the login is bad, as many MUAs (including Outlook and OE) don't like that very much, they will simply think the account data is wrong (as there's no mechanism telling the real reason in a way understandable by a machine) and prompt users for the "correct" login, which will certainly will not make them happy.
And btw, what's the problem with "frequent logins"?
