evolution has a bug when it comes to closing and IDLE' connection:

evolution does not send a DONE command, and dovecot properly answers with an error. evolution ignores this and seems to wait on another response.

Timo, do you think there could be a setting for tolerating missing DONEs? Thanks!

Well .. the attached patch should do it, but looks like a lot more code just to fix a client..

I also tested that Cyrus at least works the same way as Dovecot.
