Hello,

If I hit control-C when mutt is connecting to an IMAP server, mutt
seems to get messed up.

For example, I use mutt to access my Gmail using IMAP. If I type
control-C when mutt's status is:

Connecting to imap.gmail.com...

mutt seems to hang for a very long time. However, control-Z works as
expected.

I normally use mutt-1.5.16-4.fc8, but this seems to happen even with
mutt-1.5.20 which I just compiled from source and tried.

Is this a known problem? Thanks for any suggestions.
Mandar.
