Subject: [sup-talk] Configurable poll time

Hey all,

I know William is generally opposed to configuration values, but
I think I've found one that would be good to do: DELAY in poll.rb.
I specifically have had to reduce this value in order to prevent
a naughty IMAP server from silently dropping the connection (and
causing sup to consequently hang).

I'll cook up a patch if people are receptive.

Cheers,
Edward

I'd be fine with this one, especially if it were a per-source
configuration that lived in sources.yaml.
