Description Harvey 2014-02-04 22:04:22 UTC 
[16:02:32] IMAP4< Too many simultaneous connections. (Failure)
*** IMAP4< Alert: Too many simultaneous connections. (Failure)
** IMAP error on imap.googlemail.com: LOGIN error
[16:02:32] IMAP4< Error logging in to imap.googlemail.com


This does not mean enter a new password, no password prompt should be displayed for the user

I can confirm this bug in v. 3.10.1 (Debian stable backports).

It is a really annoying bug, popping up bogus error messages and password input dialogs to be cancelled on start-up.
