TLS socket read errors

[RS Wood]

I'm using mutt with Fastmail.net and as of relatively recently it's
begun giving me trouble: my connection gets dropped pretty quickly and
reports a tls_socket_error. Might be that fastmail has changed its SSL
settings and is dropping connections quickly, but I'm still
investigating. On the other hand, it could be the internet service
dropping packets at my house. Is anyone else having similar trouble?

Follow-up: after some experimentation, it seems to have been the
consequence of my flaky ISP's on-again, off-again connection.

I can confirm fastmail.com working fine over the recent last months
without any problems. I'm using it with Mutt 1.10.1 (2018-07-13).
