Are you logging on with Safari first? Safari has a habit of 
disconnecting and I've found almost immediate disconnects if I first 
open Safari rather than Mail.app. I've also added SafariNoTimeout which 
lets me select what timeout period for Safari, I think I set 10 hours. 
Safari is still wierd, sometimes disconnecting while pages are 
downloading saying the other side is not responding which indicates to 
me that A) safari drops the connection and then tells me there is no 
connection or B) when a site doesn't respond, Safari disconnects which 
isn't a good thing.

So, I would suggest using another browser if you are using Safari to 
see if the problem happens with that browser. Or, open a mail program 
first and later Safari.
