I suspect that Jorge was not waiting 5 minutes to see if the
timeout would
take effect. And that's for POP3. For IMAP we have a default
timeout of
just over an hour!

Also, I started a thread about this on the dbmail-dev list.
I think we've
got a rough consensus on configurable with a default of 60
seconds, and
not spend too much time arguing about it, since it Just
Makes Sense (TM)


If anybody has any use case scenarios that would be
seriously impacted by
a shorter timeout or things we haven't thought about that
might make a
major difference, please let us know!

Yep, but don't worry. This was an easy feature to add, and I
think it is
very useful. I wrote the code yesterday, will commit to SVN
later today.

An important aspect of doing this was determining when a
connected has
logged in fully. Each daemon has a different way of
indicating this state.
Gave me some good ideas for how to make it better in 2.3
development.
