>Description:
It would be nice if IMAP operations could be stopped. There are two easy 
examples where it'd be really nice. First, when downloading a big message, you 
may change your mind and not want to see the message -- it would be nice to be 
able to control-C it (like all other mutt operations) to stop. Second, when the 
network connection goes away (say, I'm running mutt on my laptop, close the 
lid, go home for the day, and open up the laptop), it'd be nice to be able to 
tell mutt "give up now" rather than having to wait for $connect_timeout
