Socket timeout in ftplib can't be handled; a program crash occurs even when the
relevant code is wrapped in a general catc
Arlo Clarke added the comment:
Thanks David. Lowering the timeout to below 60s seems to have resolved this
issue. Or at least the error isn't being thrown anymore. I don't know why the
error couldn't be handled in the first place, however.
