Actually, I am not sure which release this applies to, because I don't know
what release my hosting company is using. If this problem has not already
been addressed, I would be willing to address it myself. The symptom is
this:

>From time to time I will be composing a message and my session will time
out. When I click send the compose window closes as if the mail was sent,
but it doesn't get sent, it just disappears. I have to go back to my main
webmail page, click on something and discover that I have been timed out,
log back in, check my Sent Mail folder, then recompose the email. It's a
royal pain in the ...

The problem seems twofold. First, not all activity contributes to keeping me
from timing out or leads to the login page once I have been timed out
(clicking the Compose link for instance). Second, (and more to the point),
the compose page does not detect that it is unable to properly connect back
to the server and send the email before it closes. Is this a previously
known issue that has been addressed? If not, I'd like a crack at addressing
it.
