Every IMAP command needs to be preceeded by a tag, which is used to figure out which responses correspond to which commands. A tag is just any string, below I have used numbers. For example: * OK Courier-IMAP ready. Copyright 1998-2000 Double Precision, Inc. See COPYING for distribution information. 1 LOGIN username password 1 OK LOGIN Ok. 2 EXAMINE INBOX * FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Recent) * OK [PERMANENTFLAGS ()] No permanent flags permitted * 30 EXISTS * 0 RECENT * OK [UIDVALIDITY 1012309835] 2 OK [READ-ONLY] Ok 3 LOGOUT * BYE Courier-IMAP server shutting down 3 OK LOGOUT completed Adam. _______________________________________________ courier-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users
