hello there, here's the code i got: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1058070/

it's implementing an imap server, problem is it does not retrieve emails. mail client can capture new emails only once and after that, it should disconnect and reconnect again to receive new emails (again only once).

any idea what's wrong here?

There doesn't appear to be any attempt at reconnection logic in that example. There is only one call to `reactor.connectTCP` and there is even a call to `reactor.stop()` after the first connection is done. If you want the client to reconnect, you need to call `reactor.connectTCP` again at some point, not `reactor.stop()`. Jean-Paul

thanks in advance
