It has unfortunately been reported a lot since months. And it *only*
ever occurs with Gmail servers. I am not using Gmail, and I have never
managed to debug this. Help with this is much appreciated. It is
something down in the bowels of imaplib2.

Piers, the maintainer of imaplib2 has indicated it might be something
with locking. But it might also be some mysterious connection closing on
the gmail side.
