Folks,
I'm running into some issues with pine and dovecot. (dovecot is running mbox for now... plan to switch to maildir soon.) At first I thought it was a funky issue with the way I was using pine to access mailboxes. (I use rsh to invoke imap as pre-authenticated so when I switch to maildirs, I don't have to worry about pine being patched to support it.) But after switching over to using authenticated IMAP over port 143, it still had issues.
I'm getting messages like:
Junk in start of group Not an Address Junk at end of envelope Unknown Message property
Thus far, it seems to only occur in pine. (Squirrelmail and evolution appear to be fine) Is it the client? Is it dovecot? is it easily fixable? It feels like some sort of escaping issue or parsing issue or something. I just don't know enough about IMAP to determine exactly what it is.
I'm using dovecot v0.99.8, MAIL=mbox:%h/Mail/:INBOX=%h/.mailbox I've just converted off of wu-imap in hopes of someday migrating to maildirs on that box. (anyone know of a good mbox to maildir conversion tool? I used to have on that worked fine, but I've since found a ton that don't work well for me at all. I have about a gig of email to backup and convert)
d!
