Hello,
I have a similar question to the previous one about fetching a non
existent message sequence.

What exactly should server do when fetching a message with invalid
MIME header or body? For example, in case of FETCH ENVELOPE there
might be a message in the sequence with a broken e-mail address in one
of the required RFC822 headers. Parsing of such a message would end up
in an error condition. Should the server send an untagged NO response
and continue with processing the sequence with the final tagged OK
response, or should it stop the processing immediately and issue a
tagged NO response? I think this is not stated by the RFC, so I am
asking for a common practice, or a best possible solution.

Regards,

Slavo Uhrin
