		<description>It's difficult to tell without more debug information; but, I'd hazard a guess that your mail server may be rejecting connections if there's too many in a short period of time from one computer.

If you could try changing line 28 and 33 to be:

                      OP_HALFOPEN) &#124;&#124; die(imap_last_error());

that should give enough information to be able to track down the problem better.  (You don't want to leave that in on a production system since who are legitimately rejected would get an unfriendly looking page).  Let me know where you get with that.</description>

		<description>Hi Tim
I downloaded and used your plug-in, perfect. But, when there're more than 2 user log-on, it said wrong password (I thought it could not authenticate with my imap server). I changed to pop3 but no better. I don't know where caused my problem, form my phpBB3 or my mail server (I used MDeaMon with about 20000 accounts).

Please, help me. 
Thanks.</description>

		<description>Re: 1: 

If (!$mbox) then the stream wasn't successfully opened and doesn't actually need to be closed.

So, as it is, the flow is: 
if success on the primary server, close that connection
if not success on the primary server no connection was opened, try the alternate server, and close closes that connection.

That being said, your suggestion isn't wrong, and, as-is, it may be trying to close a connection that wasn't created on the alternate server.  The existing flow could be made more clear by checking function return values.

Re: 2: 

If you can login as an administrator, under the Admin control panel, Client Communication - Authentication there's a drop down with the list to select Db authentication.

If you can't login, the way to change it manually in the database is to edit auth_method in the table phpbb_config to be "db".  (e.g. run the SQL: UPDATE phpbb_config SET config_value='db' WHERE config_name='auth_method' LIMIT 1;).  I don't know if there's an easier way if you can't login.

Re: 3:

You're welcome and thanks for commenting.  Hope this helps.</description>

if (!$mbox) {

    // CLOSE HERE
    imap_close($mbox);

    // Give status about wrong password...
    return array(... );

    }

imap_close($mbox);
