Well, perhaps something else is timing out, that's why I asked. I thought maybe someone else had had some experience with timeouts and that perhaps something else was timing out. I'm definitely getting logged out at or around the 2hr mark I haven't had a chance to look into this more carefully though.
I'm sorry if my tone was a bit testy perviously. I'd just lost yet another email I had composed after having thought I'd fixed this problem. As far as making up configuration options goes, I did not make up "--disable-hardtimeout" or "--disable-softtimeout". I took them from a quick grep for "hardtimeout" in the configure script in the webmail dir:
# Check whether --enable-hardtimeout or --disable-hardtimeout was given.
I thought perhaps "--disable--xxxxtimout" was an undocumented option but on closer inspection it appears that it indeed isn't.

As Mr. Sam has often pointed out, it does little good to make up configuration options and hope that they work. I have used the following options through about 20 versions of sqwebmail, and they work as advertised. Perhaps the IP address of your client is changing?
--enable-hardtimeout=28800 \ --enable-softtimeout=7200 \
Good luck.

I configured and built courier with --enable-hardtimeout=79200 (22 hrs) and --enable-softtimeout=28800 (8 hours).
I'm still getting logged out of my sqwebmail session after 2 hours however. I'm getting sick of losing long mails because the damn session times out in the middle of composing them. You go to hit "send" of "save draft"and they're gone! Can you not raise the hard timeout over 2 hours? Can you not disable both of these timeouts completely?
I tried configure with --disable-hardtimeout --disable-softtimeout & with --enable-hardtimeout=no --enable-softtimeout=no but in both instances make fails.
Is the default as high as you can set the hardtimeout or something?
