Maximum number of IMAP connections

Maximum number of IMAP connections

Hi All,

I have seen this thread but from 3 years ago. It just appeared on my computer now. I only have my Outlook on my PC, bluemail on my Smartphone and samsung mail on my tablet.
How can that be too many IMAP connections?
Its continously popping up with "Your IMAP server wants to alert you the following: Your account is temporarily blocked for IMAP use. This may happen if you exceed the maximum number of simultanious IMAP connections. Kindly try after sometime"
I cannot afford to do business with a mail service that sends this type of things. Waiting is no an option for me.
