[Bug 58851] should handle network loss/change more gracefully

[sean finney]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution

this may already be reported, i didn't see it on the first page of
evolution related bug reports.  feel free to merge with a disapproving
grumble if i missed it.

for example:

- start evolution at the office
- close laptop, go home
- open laptop, resume
- try and close evolution

or even:

- start evolution
- unplug laptop
- try and close evolution

the program will go through the starting steps of closing (stuff greying
out etc), but hangs while trying to sync up its state with whatever
remote imap servers are in use.

waiting around for 5 minutes (well over TCP timeout window) nothing
really happens, and i have to kill evolution manually.

really, at the very least evolution ought to be able to detect a timed
out connection after a couple minutes.

** Affects: evolution (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Untriaged
         Status: Unconfirmed
