Comment(by brendan):

 I'm not sure about your diagnosis. First of all, I'd be pretty surprised
 if the send buffer were 4K -- I'd expect 64K+, I think, which should be
 well over the total amount of data mutt is pipelining. Second, when the
 buffer is exceeded, the sender should simply block, not return a short
 writes. Finally, it's up to the IMAP server to read from its incoming
 queue to uncork the pipeline. There's no application-level requirement
 that I can think of for mutt to read anything until it's finished sending
 its command data.
