#33 closed defect (wontfix)
User stuck if QT fails to throw network connection error
| Reported by: | petertennekes | Owned by: | tmar |

| Priority: | major | Milestone: | 0.8 |

Description
Preconditions: Problem most prominent on older devices (N95)
Steps: save a post and interrupt connection in such a way that no connection error israised (unclear what exactly triggers this)
Expected result: User can continue in some way
Actual result: Progress note will show indefinitely. User can only select exit loosing all unsaved data. There should be a cancel in this case which will save post to local draft (as is the case with connection error)

Closing this because S60 3rd ed is unsupported. I haven't been able to reproduce this with newer phones. And if we really want to support 3rd ed phones then there is a lot to be done because its platform support isn't very good and it works quite differently compared 5th ed and Symbian3.

Sometimes network requests in Qt do not time out, but usually they do.
Perhaps we should implement our own timeouts?
