gets to the point where it is checking the disk for errors, or formatting
the disk (basically any large amount of disk access), the system will lock
up completely.
This is the message you get when fetchmail times out without being able
to contact the server. Try telnetting to port 993 (the IMAP port) of

"connection refused" although I could connect to the POP3 port (110).
