Description David Woodhouse 2010-09-07 08:51:10 UTC 
My company VPN has a stupidly low session time -- it kicks me off every 48 hours. With the imap back end, evolution used to report an error when its connection failed and it couldn't reconnect. I don't get that with imapx -- it looks like it's still connected, except that it can't fetch mails. But I don't *ask* it to fetch mails, because I don't see any new ones.

I see things like this on stderr:
(evolution:15689): camel-WARNING **: CamelIMAPXStore::noop() reported failure without setting its GError

This can be similar to bug #630149
Comment 2 Matthew Barnes 2013-08-28 13:47:24 UTC 
I rewrote error propagation in IMAPX for 3.10, which should address this issue.

Closing as OBSOLETE.
