{{{
I use mutt with an IMAP server (imap.crustytoothpaste.net, running
Dovecot). My IMAP connection is always encrypted. I'm running mutt on
my laptop, so often I forget to quit mutt before I put the lid down.
When I resume my laptop, I am often at another location with a different
IP address. When I hit . to refresh the buffer list or pretty much
anything else, mutt becomes unresponsive and I cannot do anything, even
quit, for some amount of time (probably until the network times out).
Even Ctrl-C doesn't work. I'm forced to wait or use Ctrl-\.
I'd really appreciate it if mutt could be more responsive in this case.
I would prefer if it would detect that the network address had changed
or even that the connection it once had does not exist anymore. I would
even be satisfied if I could just quit and restart mutt (even if I had
to interrupt it with Ctrl-C to make it responsive again).
