Now, when idling for new mail, the smtp server times out and closes
the connection. When new mail arrives, the attempt to talk to the smtp
server results in a SIGPIPE being delivered.
fetchmail does not sometimes send a quit before closing connection.
This happens when batchlimit is reached and when idling for mail.
Here is a patch which fixes that. It has to be applied on the previous
patches in this thread.
