As a one-off testing strategy that is perfectly valid, but I'd much
rather like to see the differences in IMAP response between a 'good'
gmime version, and a 'bad' one.
Thunderbirds FETCH command is not very complex:
x login username password
x select INBOX
x FETCH 1:* (UID RFC822.SIZE FLAGS BODY.PEEK[HEADER.FIELDS (From To Cc
Subject Date Message-ID Priority X-Priority References Newsgroups
In-Reply-To Content-Type)])
x logout
stick this in a file:
cat > /tmp/testfetch.txt << EOF
x login username password
x select INBOX
x FETCH 1:* (UID RFC822.SIZE FLAGS BODY.PEEK[HEADER.FIELDS (From To Cc
Subject Date Message-ID Priority X-Priority References Newsgroups
In-Reply-To Content-Type)])
x logout
EOF
and send it to dbmail:
cat /tmp/testfetch.txt |nc imapserver 143
if that works redirect output to a file:
cat /tmp/testfetch.txt |nc imapserver 143 > /tmp/out1.txt
If you do that for a good and a bad gmime version, you can diff the
output files which will give me a really good indication of what's going on.
Also, to verify TB behavior it might be a good idea to run TB in debug-mode:
cat > ~/debug_tb.sh << EOC
#!/bin/sh
MYDATE=`date "+%Y%m%d_%H%M%S"`
NSPR_LOG_MODULES=IMAP:5
NSPR_LOG_FILE=/tmp/thunderbird_${MYDATE}.log
export NSPR_LOG_MODULES NSPR_LOG_FILE
echo $NSPR_LOG_FILE
/usr/bin/thunderbird &
exit $?
EOC
chmod +x ~/debug_tb.sh
~/debug_tb.sh
if you run TB like that, it will create a massive logfile containing all
IMAP interaction. Don't keep it running like that for too long :-)
For one thing, above TB fetch command while opening a mail-folder might
have changed in your specific TB version, so we might want to validate
it. But I suspect it will produce enough information to proceed.
