I have mutt (built from the hg tip) on a remote linux box. I ssh into
the remote box and then run mutt from the prompt. This has generally
worked fine. In fact, sometimes I open multiple ssh connections to the
remote box and run an instance of mutt in each one.
Recently, however, I have been leaving the ssh connection, and the
remote instance of mutt, open for longer than, say, 30 minutes while I
go do other things on my local box. I have noticed that when I do
this,
eventually I return to find that my ssh connection is still open and
working fine, but mutt has quit. The prompt says:
Caught signal 15... Exiting.
Is this a bug? What does "signal 15" mean?
One time I had four ssh connections to remotebox open, with an instance
of remote mutt open in each. I left them alone for about an hour, and
when I returned all four of them had quit, showing "signal 15".
The remote box is not mine. I merely rent some space on it.
