Synopsis: Bombarded with IMAP disconnection error pop-ups

Description:
Please describe your feature request:

For whatever reasons, I frequently get disconnected (remotely) from my
IMAP servers ( I use two separate ones).  My router connection is
constantly connected and shows a healthy and long uptime.  I therefore
think the disconnections are just timeouts and probably normal.

The problem is that each time this happens (say once every 15 minutes),
I get bombarded with a modal dialog informing me of the disconnection. 
These are really annoying.

Given that disconnection is a fact of life on the largely stateless
internet, can Evolution deal with these events more gracefully, e.g:-
- either place these errors in the status bar (like Outlook does)
- silently reconnect (once it is clear that the user wants to use the
IMAP account in whatever way)
