Ray, I've actually written C89 code to parse IMAP responses. libcurl IMAP is indeed garbage, because the only thing it does for you that a straight socket doesn't is encryption

So as soon as I remove these crashes I will post my code to hopefully make it a bit more of a complete IMAP library.
That'd be awesome!
Let's say I want first list folders, the default, then 1 second later I want to "EXAMINE OUTBOX", then 1 second later I want to read first message ""imap://imap.example.com/INBOX/;UID=1" There are no code samples showing how to do multiple requests like this.
Re-use the handle, use the easy interface and just issue one request at a time. If you're fine with them being done in serial.
Would something like this be the correct way? Or is this what the multi_ function families are for?
multi is for non-blocking operations or several simultaneous ones. [code cut off] Looks perfectly reasonable from a quick glance! -- / daniel.haxx.se ------------------------------------------------------------------- List admin: http://cool.haxx.se/list/listinfo/curl-library Etiquette: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/etiquette.html
