Suddenly gnus stopped working as an IMAP client. As Thunderbird also had problems I decided to do a little debugging. After viewing the *imap-log* I noticed that in the course of the seesion, gnus sends the command 124 FETCH 1,* UID to which MS Exchange Server 2007 124 BAD The specified message set is invalid. Things go downhill from there. I also manually telneted in and issued the same command, and received the same result. My questions are: 1) is 124 FETCH 1,* UID a valid IMAP command for non-empty mailboxes? 2) if so, is this an MS Exchange Server 2007 bug? 3) in either case is there a patch workaround for gnus? I am currently running gnus "5.11" that comes with emacs 22.1.1. Sorry if this has already been covered--I am not an expert in IMAP protocols, Exchange Server, or gnus. Thanks, Mat
