<para>&OfflineIMAP; is not designed to have several instances (for instance, a cron job and an interactive invocation) run over the same
mailbox simultaneously. It will perform a check on startup and
abort if another &OfflineIMAP; is already running. If you need
- to schedule synchronizations, please use the
- <property>autorefresh</property> settings rather than cron.
+ to schedule synchronizations, you'll probably find
+ <property>autorefresh</property> settings more convenient than cron.
Alternatively, you can set a separate <property>metadata</property>
directory for each instance.
