Circe does not detect failures during reconnect #246

Open jorgenschaefer opened 8 years ago

A number of users report an issue where Circe is not reconnecting correctly. The client shows *** Connecting... as expected, but that's it. There is no timeout. A simple C-c C-r fixes the problem.

While this is most likely a problem with Emacs, Circe should detect such timeouts and issue its own reconnect.
