RE: [PHP] too many IMAP ESTABLISH

I presume you're talking about there being a lot of IMAP connections relative to the number of users using your webmail. If that's not the case, let me know :) Each page a user visits that retrieves details from the IMAP server will open a connection to the IMAP server. You need to make sure you're calling imap_close() at the end of each page, otherwise the sockets may just float around for a while. After having done that, unless the number of connections are causing you some sort of problem, don't worry.
