Bug Description

Sadly, I'm currently forced to fetch mail from an Exchange server via a Cisco tunnel.
Luckily, Evolution with mapi combined with vpnc mostly works.
However, it seems that I'm forced to restart Evolution every time the tunnel disconnects (which is more often than I had hoped).
I understand that there are issues in vpnc that may cause this to happen more frequently than it should, but it would still be great if Evolution (or the mapi plug) could handle this in a better way.
