Which version of SuiteCRM is this?

If it is 7.11., please try 7.11.1 which should be coming out any day soon.

Don’t assume those errors in the log are your actual problem - maybe they are, maybe they aren’t.

IMAP errors authenticating are normally a wrong user and password, sometimes a refusal by your mail server to accept a “From” field that doesn’t match your actual email address.

I see these replies when I switch networks on my laptop, I think it perhaps has to do with a missing session key. However, any page generating such a PHP error is a potential back door for hackers to do injection attacks, so this needs to be patch.

If these errors are on screen, you should turn off display_errors in your php.ini, and restart web server.

It is not correct to say that a PHP error is an opportunity for an injection attack, or any other kind of security problem. Maybe in some case it is a symptom of something wrong that could eventually be exploited, but that would be a specific case, not something you can point to as a rule.
