Subject:	IMAP Connections

From:	Jeremy Bailey <jeremy [...] sourceonenet.com>

I found your code (very nice btw) and was using it with my mail server "SmartMail 3.2.2327" I ran into a problem where I could not connect to the IMAP server. I dug deeper into the code and found that the login command you send: "1 LOGIN user@mydomain.com {6} mypass" did not work. I removed the "{6}" from the string In IMAPClient.pm, line 305,306 is now: my $string = "Login " . ( $has_quotes ? $id : qq("$id") ) . " " . " ".$self->Password."\r\n"; Please let me know if this was "proper" -- Jeremy Bailey Senior Development Architect SourceOne Network, Inc.

According to the specs, there is either a \r\n after the {6}, or there is not {6}. So your fix could be right... but where are those \r\n which are in the code?

there are more servers which do not like the login sequence as literal, so this is changed. Probably, your problem is avoided as well. Closed ticket.
