#2938: mutt freezes some times when accessing imap folders or messages -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: b.macdonald | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: 2.0 Component: IMAP | Version: Keywords: | -------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Comment(by gavinmc): Hi, I _think_ I may be seeing this bug or at least something similar. I use mutt to access our imaps server which runs cyrus 2.3.13 (via Kolab on Debian). I'm using the latest Ubuntu-packaged Mutt 1.5.20 (2009-06-14). Every now and again, mutt will try to access a folder and just freeze up. I end up killing mutt and starting it again. For some reason (and perhaps this sets my problem as different to this), it more often than not happens when I try to reopen a postponed mail (my postponed mail is an imap folder on the server). My memory is that this is generally after a long series of idleness (possibly after I've been editing a single email for a long time so mutt itself hasn't been running, it has spawned vim). My imap config is moreorless: set imap_user="......" set spoolfile=imaps://........./INBOX set folder=imaps://....../INBOX set mail_check=60 set record="=sent-mail/`date +%Y/%m`" set header_cache=.mutt/cache set postponed="=postponed" # folder for postponed messages set imap_keepalive=60 Is there something I should do to help sort this out? Should I run with -D and wait for the output? Should I try and get it to dump a core?
