[Evolution] Hang of IMAP connections

[Paul Menzel <paulepanter users sourceforge net>]

Dear Evolution folks,


with all Evolution versions up to at least 3.4.4 I experienced, that
sometimes connections just hang and in the status bar the tab stays
forever and nothing happens.

Looking at the server with Courier IMAP 4.8.0

        Jan 17 20:01:31 myhostname imapd: Connection, ip=[::ffff:78.11.11.111]
        Jan 17 20:01:35 myhostname imapd: LOGIN, user=joe, ip=[::ffff:78.11.11.111], port=[55947], 
protocol=IMAP
        Jan 17 20:33:25 myhostname imapd: TIMEOUT, user=joe, ip=[::ffff:78.11.11.111], headers=0, body=0, 
rcvd=704, sent=500500, time=1911, starttls=1

Any idea, how that connection could time out and why Evolution does not
detect that?


Thanks,

Paul
