Here I can add that the limit is 
[15](https://support.google.com/mail/answer/97150?hl=en) for Gmail. 
MailMate, by default, uses at most 3.

But there has been problems in the past where Gmail counts more 
connections than actually used by MailMate. This happens if MailMate is 
unable to properly close existing connections before opening new ones. A 
bad network connection could be part of this.

I don't know exactly how Google enforces the restriction on the number 
of connections, but maybe it's a good idea to close MailMate for half an 
hour (or more) to make sure its count goes back to 0 (depending on the 
number of devices/clients you have). Also consider the possibility of 
other clients/scripts using Gmail connections.
