[Please don't top-post on this list].

I use both, but they are optional. That shouldn't affect the
functionality.

That said, Google is known for throttling clients that put too much load
on their servers, so I keep my refresh interval to 20 minutes. I also
limit the number of simultaneous connections to 2 and don't check for
new messages automatically. All this is just guesswork but it seems to
make the system a bit more responsive.

I note that the error message you're getting mentions
imap.googlemail.com. Pinging that server from the Shell gets no
response. The server I use is imap.gmail.com, and it does respond to
pings from the Shell. Maybe that's why you get the error.

Sure, I'll bottom-post ;)

Well, I've just came across the problem once again. It appeared after I woke up my machine from suspend...
I changed the host to gmail, I'll see what comes next.

Thanks
