Here's a patch I've written: where IDLE is unavailable, it uses periodic
+NOOP commands instead (every 28 seconds). Important behavioural change:
+the option "idle" will now always result in *some* form of idle. I think
+I read somewhere that some servers will unilaterally send status updates
+if you just hold the connection open, i.e. NOOPs would be unnecessary,
+but that doesn't seem to be the case anywhere I've tried. In any case,
+this patch copes with updates both as a response to the NOOPs and
+unilaterally sent between them. It functions exactly like normal idling
+(N.B. like normal idling, it is single-folder only), and hopefully
+includes all the appropriate changes to the documentation. Enjoy. :-)
