Summary:                    Cannot Append Large Messages - Timeout/Bailout
Description: 
If you try to append a message and it takes longer than idle_timeout (set
to default 30 seconds) then server disconnects calling
imap_session_bailout

Using Outlook 2010 you get clear message 'dbmail IMAP4 server signing off
due to timeout'. With Thunderbird 7 it just silently fails

Problem can be worked-around by increasing idle_timout in dbmail.conf to a
large number but then of course idle command is not much use.

Afaik, the report is misleading. It's not the idle_timeout that is kicking
in, but the 'timeout' which is set at 5 minutes by default. IDLE
functionality is /not/ affected.

Correction: even timeout shouldn't kick in since the timeout is reset after
every read-event on the socket.

I need a debug trace (256) to be able to say anything sensible about what
might be going on.

To clarify, increasing the idle_timeout to 180 (not the timeout) reliably
corrects this behaviour (assuming that the upload is completed within that
time-frame)

I've deleted your previous note with the logs. Please *attach* the logs.
Don't paste them. Or use a paste-bin somewhere and post the link.

I did try to attach but file was too big. I can upload a truncated log file
if you want, or do you already have what you need?
