I don't believe that it is TB requiring  relogin.  My news reader is 
SLRN & either E-S or slrn "times out" sometimes; even when I am
have not finished writing & doing a post.  Somehow I get a msg
when I finally post, I do see the msg saying I just go relogin.
And there is need to relogin if I wait too long to read a post; but
it is 'automatically'.  It has happened like that for years on the
text news reader.  If you keep deleting your id/password TB
cannot relogin automatically since it could not fine the password?

SLRN is derived from unix tin, I think, & haven't been changed
for a very very long time.
