I did a google search for just "imap streamproxy" and all the
references I found were pointing to GMX's POP3 and IMAP servers
miss-behaving in some awful way, like breaking RFCs in ways you'd not
believe.

- From what I have seen, I cannot seem to find any but the name
StreamProxy, but I keep seeing plenty of Java references. Maybe they
have an unusual proxy system to do load sharing.

Telnet is your friend :)

That should be the basics of what you'd probably need. The fetch
will grab everything in the INBOX, well, the header fields FROM,
DATE, and TO. You might need to change INBOX to whatever they
called it, if you're not sure, issue a command as such before the
SELECT INBOX:
> A02 LSUB "" "*%"
This will produce a list of folders, then you can use the SELECT
<folder> to select that other folder.
To save flooding yourself, read the results from the A03 STATUS
INBOX command, and find out how many messages you have in that
folder. For example:
a03 STATUS INBOX (MESSAGES RECENT)
* STATUS "INBOX" (MESSAGES 125 RECENT 0)
a03 OK STATUS Completed.
I know I have 125 messages in INBOX, so to save flooding myself,
I'll change the fetch to be:
> A04 FETCH 1:10 (FLAGS BODY[HEADER.FIELDS (FROM DATE TO)])
Hope that gives you some ideas :)
