I have reported this bug to Opera, but... what would be the consequences
of treating this as a NOOP in this case, since the purpose of a "CLOSE" is
to return to the "authenticated" state (which is the state after a
successful "LOGIN" and what Courier does, <cough>, <cough>)?
I can't do that, sorry. This server will never work around bugs in clients
like that. :-) The bug in Opera could be serious, but with a silent
"harmless" symptom that it sends a "CLOSE" when it shouldn't.
So I beleive that it's in everybody's interest to have the bug fixed at the right end. :-)
