Zope and Groupwise are on different machines, so I don't think I can 
blame Groupwise. Imap servers are supposed to loose the connection after 
a set time. eg. 20 minutes.

It is most likely something that happens in the imap library. Perhaps a 
socket being freed and garbage collected, which I then try to access 
from the pool.

My connection pooling is just a thin wrapper around the standard imap 
library. So I guess I should try to find the problem there.

Ok. I will need to do some deeper debugging. Nothing is more fun than 
debugging something with a 20 minutes timeout :-s
