Maybe this is not the right place for the ticked but the problem is related
to IMP.

We have a user with over 36,000 messages in his INBOX. If the
sessionhandler is set to memcache, then the user will be logged out when
trying to compose and send a new message after he/she logged in. It seems
that the session gets destroyed somehow because of its size.

When I switch to the mysql sessionhandler the problem is gone. And I see
that the session has a szie of ~2.8Mb. I thought that this shold not be a
problem for the memcache cache driver anymore, at least not when using it
for caching things. Is the storing of sessions handled differently?
