I agree that it's bad style. I'll investigate a way to do this
conditionally, either with a configuration flag or by somehow
detecting Exchange 2007 (the untagged initial "* OK Microsoft Exchange
Server 2007 IMAP4 service ready" seems like a good thing to work
with), or the broken behavior itself. Mostly I wanted to make sure
this patch was archived somewhere for the next person who encounters
this problem and does a web search on their error message.
