   Yes, there is traffic every few seconds with `snoop':

   electra.cc.umanitoba.ca -> net41.anthro.umanitoba.ca TCP D=2034 S=110     
Ack=1055534117 Seq=3063126801 Len=1 Win=24656
   net41.anthro.umanitoba.ca -> electra.cc.umanitoba.ca TCP D=110 S=2034     
Ack=3063126801 Seq=1055534117 Len=0 Win=0

   My guess is that the mail reader on the client disappeared.

It appears that the client is still there (you have an active TCP
session) but I don't know if it's making progress.  Are the sequence
numbers changing?

It's almost as if someone Ctrl-z'd the pop client on their machine.

Now, in terms on Cyrus: it's probably a bug (or at the very least a
misfeature) that we don't implement any sort of timeout on write.
This is mostly an implementation simplicity choice.
