Disable IDLE altogether in Cyrus. Outlook doesn't play well with
others, except for Exchange.
Isn't MS the one that put forth this IDLE business anyway? And so here
they don't even interact well with it?
The spec was written by a guy at IBM (Barry Leiba). I don't know if MS
was using it before then. From what I've seen, Outlook uses IDLE almost
non-stop and doesn't end it before the server inactivity timeout closes
the connection. Any IDLE client should/must end the IDLE (and probably
restart it) after no more than 29 minutes, to avoid the minimum 30
minute server timeout.
