If initial scans of folders on first connection to the subprocess take too long, subprocess connection is never established #349

We do initial scans before telling the main server process how to connect to the authenticated subprocess. If these scans take too long basically the connection will time out and no new connections will work.

We had started to allow connections before we finished all internal scans. Scans generally finish fast enough if there are no big catch-ups with new mail.
