That error message indicates that something appended to that that mbx format mailbox in traditional UNIX mailbox format. The two formats are incompatible with each other.

That "something" was not anything based upon my c-client library.

The solution is not to use whatever program did the dirty deed. Since I did not write that program (nor know its identity), I can't advise you further about it.

The repair of that mailbox file involves splitting it at byte 14419. Everything up to byte 14419 is OK. What comes afterwards is broken.

Previously created mailboxes work fine, also in mbx format. I am using
Debian Stable's uw-imapd package. It could be Debian specific, but I am
not sure. Perhaps there is a known solution.
