Hi,

I have an installation where different clients are accessing a single 
IMAP account. Each of the clients is using TheBat v5.0.36.

This has been working generally fine for some time (months with this 
version, years with earlier versions.) Now, suddenly, there are 
problems:

When clients start up, they hang on connecting. The status line states
"TLS handshake [something]". Some clients never connect, others
connect after some time (e.g. five minutes.) Those that don't connect,
you have to kill TheBat by using task manager. Some connect, but don't
see new mail. With others, folder updates are extremly slow.


This is a log from a machine that did connect after nearly four 
minutes:

That was early this morning. Immediatly afterwards, the very same
machine did connect much faster:

I seem to remember there being an issue like this during one of the 
last beta cycles. Could someone remind me how this turned out again? 
Was it a bug in TheBat that was subsequently fixed (meaning I could 
perform an update to the latest version and be fine), or was it a 
different problem?


Regards,
Alto
