Ctrl-C not working anymore to abort

[ghost]

I keep getting this

Got a signal INT (my PID is 2738)
Hit 2 ctr-c within 2 seconds to exit the program
Hit only 1 ctr-c to reconnect to both imap servers
For now only one signal INT within 2 seconds.

I've encountered this behavior with some terminals as well.
An xterm is usually ok but gnome-terminal ignores the double ctrl-c
I don't know why.
Ctrl-z should work, it doesn't end the process but it gives back the control of the terminal.
To end the process, add

kill  2738 # from the line "Got a signal INT (my PID is 2738)"
fg

Imapsync revision 1.929 added:
Bug fix: When asked to terminate by a signal, kill myself by the signal instead of an exit call. Applied Martin Cracauer's advice on Proper handling of SIGINT/SIGQUIT. I hope it fixes the not always working double-ctrl-c to end the sync.

I'm closing this issue. I've seen no recent report about this "double ctr-c not working".

I use not that often imapsync in Docker and I see this issue pretty everytime. Maybe it is related to docker, by I have to kill the process.. it doesn't work.

That's interesting, I've just tested this and you're right!

docker run gilleslamiral/imapsync imapsync --testslive --simulong 5

The good thing when a developer can reproduce an issue by himself is that soon enough the issue is solved.

I have updated the docker image in order to make ctr-c works well under docker.
https://hub.docker.com/r/gilleslamiral/imapsync

Try it with:

    docker pull gilleslamiral/imapsync

    docker run gilleslamiral/imapsync imapsync --testslive --simulong 30
    # Hit ctr-c and see!
