When she was talking to me

Are these sentences correct:

1) She mentioned you once while she has been talking to me.
2) She mentioned you once while she was talking to me.

3) She mentioned you once when she has been talking to me.
4) She mentioned you once when she was talking to me.

Is there any difference in the meanings?

Which imply that she has talked to me more than once?

Gratefully,
Navi

She did not say that at all. Maybe she has never talked to you.
