Right. After playing more and reading bits of an rfc, it is after all the "go ahead" violation of the IMAP protocol. So despite my last message, Lele was absolutely right after all. Playing with openssl s_client -connect mail.btinternet.com:993 -crlf also seems to show other violations of rfc3501 such as in the correct wording of some responses. As I said earlier, I think offlineimap/imaplib2 really ought to report the violation at the very least. ael _______________________________________________ OfflineIMAP-project mailing list: [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/offlineimap-project OfflineIMAP homepages: - https://github.com/OfflineIMAP - http://offlineimap.org
