JavaMail can only read one message at a time through IMAP. Threrefore, I am wondering whether opening several connections and reading emails concurrently is a good wordaround. Has anyone done this? I am concerned about the server (Gmail) refusing to open multiple connections or throttling them.
i have tried this. it seems to work fine, because it seems completely fine (and common) to have 2 different clients connected to gmail on different computers. However, i sometimes get random errors from gmail, and in that case its one additional factor to debug.
