Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnubiff
I have a flaky wifi connection, with one Gmail IMAP account set up. If a
connection interruption occurs when gnubiff is checking mail, it never
recovers and will always show the 'Error' status for that account, even
if afterwards the connection is stable.
Opening and closing the preferences dialog seems to reset this state so
it can check mail properly again.
Suggested fix: Gnubiff should handle network errors elegantly, and
continue to check emails after a network error.
