Disconnected from IMAP?

[Aaron Hsu]

Hey All,

When using Gnus, it seems that for some reason, after a period of time I
am disconnected from my IMAP server (newsservers do not seem affected by
this). Now, when it tries to reconnect (on a STARTTLS connection), it
says that it can't connect, and then it refuses to do anything with this
server. I see this when I am writing a long email and I just happen to
run into trouble there, or if I leave Gnus open for a while and then try
to get new messages. Running a restart seems to fix the problem, with by
an explicit quit and then M-x gnus or by issuing the `R' key.

Does anyone know what this is an how to fix it?
