Hello,

It is a good thing, since the client caches a lot of information during a 
connection.

Generally the IMAP servers should disconnect the session if it is idle for 
more than 30 minutes, so I believe that everything is normal.

If you use a good IMAP client eg Pine, you will see sessions lasting 
several weeks.
