Canceling used to reconnect, this doesn't happen anymore and therefore cancels are broken.
This means that if while you are doing something, and you start doing something else (over the IMAP socket), that the socket is put in a useless state (well, it often will be set in that state).
And that you need to manually reconnect.
This is of course not a feature but a bug :-)
This is a known limitation of the current IMAP code, so this is really just a tracker bug for getting it fixed (getting it to be correct again).
Note: With the non-blocking read it should be possible to recover from a cancel without the need to truly reconnect with the service.
