Hello,
in fetchmail-6.2.1/TODO
IDLE is not fully implemented. Fetchmail does not time out
the idle connection every 30 minutes or less as required by
RFC2177. Some servers (including UW IMAPD compiled without the
MICROSOFT_BRAIN_DAMAGE option, as is the default) will drop the
connection after 30 minutes, resulting in a spurious socket error in
your logs and no mail being picked up until the next poll cycle.
I've written a patch trying to fill this lack.
Regards,
CG
