Subject: Patch for an IMAP interop bug
Date: 14 Jun 2001 15:30:39 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87lmmuk834.fsf@fluff.lickey.com> (raw)
I was experiencing problems connecting to a courier-imap server with
the current CVS ognus.
Turns out that server is sending some flags with this format:
( \Noinferior)
instead of
(\Noinferior)
Other IMAP clients can handle it, so nnimap probably should as well:
