[WinPartners] Kerberos tickets never expire (?)

[Atticus Gifford]

Are you quitting Eudora in between?  Do the tickets appear as valid in 
Leash?  On my machine (OS X) the tickets expire as expected but as long 
as Apple Mail isn't asked to break the connection to the mail servers 
it will keep checking for mail.  If it breaks overnight (or I select a 
new folder to view for example) then it will ask me for tickets again.  
The tickets are only needed to authenticate when establishing the 
connection.
