Problem with nnimap on a Lotus Domino server

Problem with nnimap on a Lotus Domino server

[Adrian Lanz]

I wanted to give the nnimap backend a try on our company server (Lotus
Domino). [Pressing 'B' in the group buffer and following the
instructions.]. However, no success: after connecting to the server (I
think: the backend is listed in the server buffer), I see no new group
in the group buffer and a message in mode-line and the *Message* buffer
simply says: "Couldn't request list: ". Any clue? Below, what I find in
the debug and log buffers, and what a telnet session to the server says.

Many thanks, Adrian.

PS: Below, I replaced the Control-M in the log buffers with the two
characters "^" and "M" (and, of course, changed, usernames passwords,
server names, domains).

PPS: Fetching mail messages form the same server works perfect:
(mail-sources '((imap ...))).

I think I see what the problem is, but could you send me this output as
an attachment, so that I get exactly the same output you got?

Works now, thanks.
