IN=br-lan OUT=ppp0 SRC=xxxxxxxx DST=xxxxxx LEN=52 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=63 ID=56403 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=49759 DPT=993 WINDOW=65535 RES=0x00 ACK FIN URGP=0 993 is IMAP over SSL. They happen between 5 and 10 seconds and they come in bulks of 10 to 20 every few minutes. First I suspected netfilters timeout to close this "stale" tcp-session, but increasing the time-out hasn`t changed anything. Thunderbird does not complain. Any ideas what might cause this ? cu romal
