No one proved that the variable length was the problem. That was
a guess.

Hello!
In december 2005 was a thread about downloading multible messages
via pop3 with Outlook as email client. The reason for this problem
was a wrong or broken handling of MS Outlook with the UIDL of cyrus
imapd(pop3d).
Cyrus Imapd uses a UIDL with variable length (rfc conform) but Outlook
can not handle this variable length and starts over to download the
message if it meets a point where the UIDL changes.
Well. The problem is caused by Outlook.
But I have to fix this problem, but I can not fix Outlook, you know.
Now my questions:
Has anybody out there already started to work on a patch for the cyrus
server?
Are there any suggestions where to patch the (correct working) imapd|popd?
Hints and cooperations are welcome
