Zimbra Open Source Edition 8.0 is installed on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS @ ESXi.
Everything works fine, but a heavy user gets "connection interrupted by the server" error on the Outlook. The mailboxd.log shows the following entry.
2012-10-18 10:53:37,828 WARN [Pop3Server-213] [ip=192.168.100.154;] pop - throttling POP3 connection for remote IP 192.168.100.154
Reverse proxy is not installed, and the minimum mail polling interval is set to 1 second for this user. Seen some attributes related to the proxy, but the proxy service is not enabled.
How can I disable the pop3/imap throttling or increase the allowance?
Thanks in advance.

Found the answer.
It is a new feature in Zimbra 8.0. It is in the release note for 8.0 but the installer contains release note for 7.2 beta, so it was missed.

So.... what is the answer, please? I re-read the release notes and do not see how to disable this "new feature" which has wreaked havoc on some of our systems and is interrupting our workflow.

I assume this is the same issue... one of our auto-email printers gets this error when attempting to get emails:

IZRUNAS, I HOPE YOU GOT YOUR PROBLEM SOLVED. I AM WRITING IN CASE YOU HAVEN'T, AND FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT.
ZIMBRA 8 INTRODUCED A NEW FEATURE TO THROTTLE POP3 AND IMAP4 AND IT CAN CAUSE PROBLEM TO THE USERS WHO CHECK THEIR EMAIL VERY FREQUENTLY.

I BELIEVE SETTING THE VALUE TO 0 WILL DISABLE, BUT I WANTED TO HAVE BASIC PROTECTION AGAINST POP3 HACKING ATTEMPTS OR DOS ATTACK. SETTING BIGGER LIMIT (2,000 FOR EXAMPLE) SOLVED THE PROBLEM.

How to disable POP3 throttling
I had the same situation and changing pop3_throttle_ip_limit and pop3_throttle_acct_limit solved the problem in my case.
Thanks a lot!
