Apparently what is happening is that when the "Select folder" menu
stops responding Sylpheed is off writing to a cache or otherwise
busy.  If I leave it for "a while" (some minutes) then it starts
working again.  Here is the tail of terminal output I found on two
recent occasions:

[01:35:33] SMTP< 354 End data with <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>
[01:35:33] SMTP> . (EOM)
