+ $socket_receive_timeout and $socket_send_timeout cause mutt to
timeout on a network read/write operation, respectively. These
could be useful if you have an unreliable connection and
frequently find mutt gets stuck in a read.
! The folder browser now differentiates browsing for a file versus a
mailbox. For IMAP users, this means when attaching a file to an
email, mutt will browse your local computer by default.
! <edit-label> no longer untags messages. This is consistent with
other operations inside of mutt.
+ $imap_reconnect_tries and $imap_reconnect_sleep control the number
of times mutt will try to reconnect when a connection is lost, and
how long to sleep between each retry.
