PH/43 Yet another patch from the Sieve maintainer. PH/44 I found a way to check for a TCP/IP connection going away before sending - the response to the final '.' that terminates a message. At this time, - there should not be any pending input - the client should be waiting for - the response. Therefore, a select() can be used: if it shows that the - input is "ready", there is either input waiting, or the socket has been - closed. Both cases are errors. (It's a bit more complicated than this - because of buffering, but that's the essence of it.)
