Package: mutt Version: 1.5.13-3 Severity: normal I can open and examine the contents of some folders on my Cyrus IMAP server, but when I try to exit (either by quitting the program or changing to another folder) mutt hangs for awhile (minutes) and then I get a timeout message: Idle too long, closing connection Error saving flags The first messages also appears in my cyrus logs, so I assume it was generated by the server and reported by mutt.
This may be the result of some peculiarity of my IMAP server; in particular it has many folders (100+) and the main INBOX has about 23k messages (some of the others are larger). I do *not* experience this problem with a remote IMAP server (2 folders, 8k messages). I am able to manipulate the IMAP folder by other means, including altering the flag. cyradm works; Python's imaplib works; kmail kinda works (it's very slow). evolution can't create accounts! It would be nice to have one working mail client... My recollection is that I've had this problem with several folders, but in recent tests I was able to exit OK from folders with up to 23K messages (slightly more than the INBOX). It is only the INBOX that is giving me trouble. It may be relevant that I have account-hook . 'unset imap_user; unset imap_pass; unset tunnel' account-hook imap://imap.xxx.com/ 'set imap_user=aname imap_pass=apass' account-hook imap://localhost/ 'set imap_user=bname imap_pass=bpass' in .muttrc. localhost is the one giving me trouble. mutt and cyrus are on the same box. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-4-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages mutt depends on: ii exim4 4.63-17 metapackage to ease exim MTA (v4) ii exim4-daemon-heavy [mail- 4.63-17 exim MTA (v4) daemon with extended ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdb4.4 4.4.20-8 Berkeley v4.4 Database Libraries [ ii libgnutls13 1.4.4-3 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libidn11 0.6.5-1 GNU libidn library, implementation ii libncursesw5 5.5-5 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libsasl2-2 2.1.22.dfsg1-8 Authentication abstraction library Versions of packages mutt recommends: ii locales 2.3.6.ds1-13 GNU C Library: National Language ( ii mime-support 3.39-1 MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
