Only after quitting emacs altogether, the connection was finally closed. Is emacs supposed to never close unneeded IMAP connections? -- "Object-oriented programming languages aren't completely convinced that you should be allowed to do anything with functions." http://www.joelonsoftware.com/items/2006/08/01.html
