The IMAP command that appears to be generating the "NO" response from Exchange is: | | 3 -> imap-send-command-1: cmdstr="302 STATUS \"Public Folders/Aelita EMW Recycle Bin\" (uidvalidity uidnext unseen)" | | 3 <- imap-send-command-1: nil | 2 <- imap-send-command: 302 and eventually it gets this response: | | | | | | 7 -> imap-arrival-filter: proc=# string="302 NO Connect attempt failed: server may be down or too busy to respond." So I tried connecting to the same mailbox using OS X Mail.app. It spins for a while when I try to enter the group, then grays out the mailbox name. Hovering over it shows a tooltip that says: Mail was unable to open this mailbox on server ... and shows the same "too busy" message as above. So there's something hosed with the Exchange server (surprise!) but Mail.app recovers gracefully why Emacs does not. I've tried to make it avoid anything but the INBOX tree using nnimap-list-pattern as below: (setq gnus-select-method '(nnimap "hemi" ; use ~/.authinfo for user/passwd (nnimap-address "mail01.ndc.nasa.gov") (nnimap-stream ssl) (nnimap-list-pattern ("INBOX")) )) but *imap-log* is still showing it querying other mailbox hierarchies including the broken one, 302 below: 301 STATUS "INBOX/saved/zope" (uidvalidity uidnext unseen) 302 STATUS "Public Folders/Aelita EMW Recycle Bin" (uidvalidity uidnext unseen) 303 STATUS "Public Folders/Internet Newsgroups" (uidvalidity uidnext unseen) ... 301 OK STATUS completed. 302 NO Connect attempt failed: server may be down or too busy to respond. Is gnus ignoring the list-pattern or am I missing something? And is there a way to get gnus to recover from the "NO" response about a group? Thanks.
