I have an IPv6 connection through a tunnel and since my mail server supports IPv6, normally all IMAP traffic is sent over IPv6. However, when the IPv6 connection fails (e.g. route failure somewhere along the route), the IMAP resource hangs indefinitely, unable to abort or whatsoever. Other applications like e.g. firefox gracefully fall back to IPv4 connectivity (which was still working) and in my opinion the IMAP resource should do the same. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use IMAP resource with a server with both an IPv4 and IPv6 address 2. Make sure your host has IPv4 and IPv6 configured 3. Simulate route failure along the route (e.g. drop IPv6 traffic on the firewall) Actual Results: IMAP resource hangs completely Expected Results: The IMAP resource should fall back on IPv4 connectivity.
The IMAP resource has a new maintainer, reassigning to him.
Can you check if this is still the case with >= 4.11.3 and perhaps debug where it hangs?
