Hi,
this is a catch all bug that I would like to solve in Debian with a single
patch, that will help us to close at least 7 bugs all together.
Currently there are operation that locks mutt and you cannot really
interrupt them, sometimes it's because of SA_RESTART on the signal mask
and some other times I haven't found a reason so I'm asking your help to
produce a patch.
2 cases as an example:
(1) I'm sending a mail with a large attachment, I change my mind and I
want to interrupt smtp_data, ctrl+C doesn't help
This patch helps to do that:
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-
mutt/mutt.git/commit/?id=91a79c5daea954bd52c285081b82a473fa8407be
(2) do the following
(a) open a IMAP mailbox
(b) iptables -A OUTPUT -d imap_server_ip -j DROP
(c) mutt freezes
cltr+C does not help, even if I call mutt_allow_interrupts(1) before, the
call seems stuck in the recv() of gnutls, can we have a way to interrupt
that?
