A further point of information. I do have an nntp connection as well as
the imap connection. It's an ntp connection to "news.gmane.io". In the
sequence of events above, I do not specifically attempt to reset the
nntp connection, but it may to be affected by the VPN switch. I do not
know what mechanism might have killed that buffer.
