+    imapd.c: imapoptions: implement idle timeout
+    
+    Use the value of the configuration variable "timeout" as an upper
+    limit in minutes for idle connections. To allow further
+    customization, add a new configuration option "imapidletimeout"
+    which, if greater than zero, will be used instead. The value
+    defaults to zero (not set).
+    
+    RFC 2177 recommends that a client re-issue the IDLE command at
+    least every 29 minutes if it wishes to continue, otherwise the
+    server is free to treat the client as disconnected.
+    
+    The rationale is that sometimes connections aren't properly
+    reset. Currently, a connection is not collected if it was in IDLE
+    state at that point. If this happens repeatedly, imapd keeps
+    accumulating dead connections which can cause DOS. This patch
+    solves the problem by forcing imapd to stop idling after
+    exceeding the configured timeout.
