I know it seems at least unusual.
But I would like to know if someone knows a software that can proxy multiple pop3 and imap connections to the same account and use only imap connections to the real server.
I need it because I've to deal with two pieces of software that are out of my control:
1 - A certified mail provider that states something that I would like to know if it's really true, or if it's worth keeping like a funny signature: "multiple imap sessions are possible. When an imap session is active, no pop3 connections are possible on the same account; when no imap connection is active, only one pop3 connection at a time is possible on the same account. This is a limitation of the pop3 protocol."
2 - A software written to deal with certified mails that supports only pop3 used by many people on the same account, (and the same account is used also by multiple imap mail readers).
Regards, Diego.
