I've added the following rule to CVS, which matches that:

^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ pure-ftpd:
\([.[:alnum:]-]+@[._[:alnum:]-]+\) \[INFO\] Timeout$

It's usually better to avoid broad rules like [INFO].*. For now, I'll
add the above rule and leave it as is and discuss it with the rest of
the logcheck team.
