This is because there is a main IMAPd which accepts connections, but
after your connection is established the server forks.  The copy of
the imapd which is controlling your connection is not the same process
which is accepting connections.  When the imapd copy which is
controlling your connection crashes, it affects nothing other than
your current connection to the server.
