The GNUS mail client developers would like to add quirk to workaround
this problem in its mail client, any idea which version should be
affected by this problem?

Thank you & best regards,

Streaming MOVE commands

[Emilio Jesús Gallego Arias]

The following message is a courtesy copy of an article
that has been posted to gmane.mail.imap.dovecot as well.

Dear Dovecot devs,

is streaming multiple MOVE commands by clients allowed?

I am getting duplicated messages with the GNUS mail client, and the
interchange looks like this:

> 9019 UID MOVE 4062,4066,4068 "folder0"
> 9020 UID MOVE 4063:4064,4067,4069:4072 "folder1"
> * OK [COPYUID 1424475218 4062,4066,4068 376:378] Moved UIDs.
> * OK [COPYUID 1424475231 4063:4064,4067,4069:4072 26:32] Moved UIDs.
> * VANISHED 4062,4066,4068:4072

thus 4063, 4064, and 4067 end both in inbox and folder1. [1]

Version and config information below.

Best regards,
Emilio
