Subject: [Imap-protocol] Deleting selected mailbox

Hi,
|
||
|
|
||
|
I'm wondering that if a client issues a DELETE against the mailbox that is
|
||
|
currently SELECTed then what should be the correct way to handle this. In
|
||
|
most cases it seems that servers respond with untagged BYE. Would it be
|
||
|
correct to send the BYE before tagged response for DELETE or not?
|
||
|
|
||
|
I have a race condition in WildDuck IMAP server where sometimes the
|
||
|
notification about deleted folder gets processed before tagged response is
|
||
|
sent to the client, so while in most cases this happens:
|
||
|
|
||
|
C: A SELECT FOLDER
|
||
|
S: (mailbox info)
|
||
|
S: A OK [READ-WRITE] SELECT completed
|
||
|
C: A DELETE FOLDER
|
||
|
C: A OK DELETE completed
|
||
|
C: * BYE Selected mailbox was deleted, have to disconnect
|
||
|
(connection is closed by server)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Then sometimes it is like this (no response for DELETE):
|
||
|
|
||
|
C: A SELECT FOLDER
|
||
|
S: (mailbox info)
|
||
|
S: A OK [READ-WRITE] SELECT completed
|
||
|
C: A DELETE FOLDER
|
||
|
C: * BYE Selected mailbox was deleted, have to disconnect
|
||
|
(connection is closed by server)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Is the latter a violation of IMAP RFCs? I mean that once the client
|
||
|
reconnects the folder is not there anymore anyway?
|
||
|
|
||
