it was reported in the other mail.  your proxy is saying it supports
LITERAL+, but it doesn't.

if you see the log it is sending two arguments.  the proxy doesn't
udnerstand literal+ so the login line is being taken as the 1 line with
no extra argument and failing there.

the first arugm3ent is:
 '{0+}
'

which is in literal+ format, saying 'take the next 0 bytes as the
argument'.

the second is
 '""'

which shows up a little later in the log.

they will have problems with certain passwords (e.g. a password that
contains control characters) if they dont fix their literal handling
(the other uni just made everyone not use those kinds of passwords).
