Over the past few days, my internet service provider has repeatedly blocked me because I was sending too many web requests. It turned out that my browser was sending over 200 requests per minute to the Webmail Lite service. I don't understand why there is such high traffic between the browser and the PHP application. Is this a configuration issue or a bug?

The issues started when I updated to Version 9.8.4.build6-build-o3, so I suspect it's due to this update.

Please open DevTools in Chrome, Network tab, Payload and make the screenshot so that we'd see both the list of queries on the left and any of the payloads on the right. Send this via Helpdesk.

Turns out my provider does not implement fail2ban but rather use2ban:
WebMail Light does send 90 to 100 requests via appmin.js whith the first visit (mostly folder and file-information requests) and that's it. Upon interaction, it repeatedly sends a bunch of these Jason-requests. So 200 requests is easily reached when I browse my mails, switch folders etc.
I guess that's expected behaviour. I got whitelisted by the provider for my webmail-subdomain, so there should be no issue in the future.

If this behaviour is not intended, I can of course provide the screenshot.

Yes, it's ok when so many requests are sent on opening the session.

We thought you had so many requests every minute through the entire session.
