The imap server in question is 207.106.47.239:143, and I've just
|
|
notified the vendor.

If your report is correct, that is absolutely, indisputably,
|
|
unambiguously
|
|
a bug in that IMAP server.
|
|
|
|
Please identify the IMAP server in question. This is important for two
|
|
reasons:
|
|
|
|
First, the community needs to know about buggy IMAP servers; and the
|
|
vendors of such servers need to know that the buggy nature of their
|
|
server
|
|
is known to the community. Unfortunately, a few vendors have been known
|
|
|
|
to disregard (and never fix) bugs in their software in the absence of
|
|
community pressure.
|
|
|
|
Second, if the IMAP server in question is known to be non-buggy, then
|
|
there must be some bug in your client and you need to know this. The
|
|
diagnosis of "server bug" can not be considered complete without
|
|
verification that your report (and thus your client) is correct.
