Sometime in very busy network, or in network with a many hop from client to
server, IMAP server don't answer in default timeout. 
Changing the default timeout parameter can avoid the reported problem.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Connect to a IMAP server in a network very busy



Actual Results:  
If Thunderbird can't connect the IMAP server in default timeout it say "Can't
connect to the server" (o similiar)

Expected Results:  
Thunderbird wait for a more long time before say that it can't connect to the server
