dovecot - Nov 2010 - Workaround for evolution?

Hi,

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

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=628515

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.
