I'm no longer so sure about when imap processes are spawned or terminated - but there seem to be a non-deterministic "lots" of them for each Thunderbird session.
There is one process create each time Thunderbird opens a new connection, up to a limit which should be configured in your imap server (MAXPERIP for courier-imap) Thunderbird opens a connection each time a new folder is accessed, and closes them when it has reach a limit which is configured in "Account Setting", <account>, "Server settings", "Advanced", "maximum unmber of connections to cache" -- Régis http://regis.decamps.info/blog/ -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
