Thanks for the reply :) And sorry for the missing details!

No network manager, only manual terminal management. And only IMAP.

I have tested this on a huge rage of setups over an extended time (years) - not
by design, but simply because I use all these systems and have run into this
problem persistently, just never sat down and filed a rapport.

I have tested on Arch, Debian, Mint, Void and FreeBSD.

The problem is persistent and relatively easy to replicate.

One simple way to experience the problem is to:

1. Enable a VPN service (get an IP).
2. Start claws-mail and open an Inbox.
3. Re-start the VPN service (get another IP).
4. Try to read another email.

It's like claws-mail tries to "keep" the connection open all time and since the
IP changes, it freezes up and has to be killed.

Kindest regards.
