Hello,

I believe the fix first appeared in 2.6.6.

handshake would hang indefinitely if the remote end hangs.

However, I'm getting hanging behavior in an IMAP script.  When I Ctrl-C
it after hours of hanging, I get the same stacktrace as reported in
http://bugs.python.org/issue1251#msg72363 , though Antoine said that
r80452 fixed issue 5103 as well as this bug.

He claimed that it should fix 1251, but I cannot see that there was a dependable code for making the problem appear.

(This behavior started only in the last couple of weeks after a longer
period working correctly, so I suspect something changed on GMail's end
to trigger the bug.)

Possible.

Am I do something wrong, or is this bug still not fixed?  Any pointers
would be appreciated.  Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Dec  7 2011, 20:48:22)
on 64-bit Linux 2.6.32.

If you want any attention from developers, you will have to show a problem with 2.7.3 or latest 3.2+. I do not know that there is much change in 2.7, but I know there is more in change in 3.3 (the do_handshake call is moved and has a different context.
