Description : imapproxy was written to compensate for webmail clients that are
: unable to maintain persistent connections to an IMAP server. Most
: webmail clients need to log in to an IMAP server for nearly every
: single transaction. This behaviour can cause tragic performance
: problems on the IMAP server. imapproxy tries to deal with this problem
: by leaving server connections open for a short time after a webmail
: client logs out. When the webmail client connects again, imapproxy
: will determine if there's a cached connection available and reuse it
: if possible.
