Description of problem: early since Fedora 15 I have a laptop sometimes I disconnect from network, and ping timeout take more than 10 minutes which is very annoying. Sometimes I lose my patience and use killall evolution , but if I wait , evolution close by it self , but every time that I got a network problem , I have to wait arround 10 minutes (I don't count) to get evolution ready again. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): evolution-3.0.3-1.fc15.x86_64 How reproducible: I simply create an imap account, and in mail server configuration write wrong name of a server (be sure that doesn't exist at all). And try get email . Actual results: Ping server , round and round many minutes and block evolution. Expected results: give a quick error. Additional info:
