Bad server.

I have that problem with one account of my ISP. The other accounts at
that ISP work fine, except this one.

For years.


Alpine can not stand that problem and closes the folder. Other MUAs,
like Thunderbird, silently reopen and the user doesn't even notice. On
the other hand, I get corrupted indexes with TB now and then.
