	I have an issue related to this problem. dsync returns an error 75 when
it detects the source mailbox is empty (client probably pop3'd all of
their email). It also returns an error 75 when I get the timeout error.
For not I am parsing the error to find out which is which and act
accordingly. It would be much nicer if dsync returned a different error
code for empty source mailboxes.
