Hello,
I'm using mutt 1.5.21 to read my mail over IMAP with
$ mutt -f imap://imap.1blu.de/
The IMAP relevant part in ~/.muttrc is:
set imap_user="XXXXXXXX"
set imap_pass="XXXXXXXX"
set mail_check=60
set timeout=10
Sometimes, on start the above command just hangs, saying Connecting...
(after DNS lookup was fine); I've watched with TCPDUMP the exchange, but
it only showed that mutt is waiting for some response from the server;
Why the timeout=10 is not canceling the wait? I allways have to kill the
xterm or go to some other xterm and kill mutt;
Any ideas?
