Hi all,

I have a problem with the local imap server which only maintains the
connection open for 15 seconds. Unfortunately there is no way to
convince the administrator to increase this timeout. Thunderbird
somehow keeps the connection open by pinging permanently. However,
Thunderbird is not my favorite email client. ;-)

I have tried to tweak the parameters

        imap-keepalive
        timeout
        mail-check

but couldn't make it work (using perhaps the wrong combination).

Are there any other tricks you know of, maybe using tunneling
or an external Perl script pinging (or a workable combination
of mutt parameters)?

Many thanx. Best, Mike
