[bug-mailutils] Mailutils 2.1 IMAP issues

[Thomas Guyot-Sionnest]

I haven't had much time to follow development lately but I reported some
IMAP bugs in mailutils v1.2 and v2.0 some time ago.

When I noticed mu 2.1 was released I gave it a shot. There are
definitely some issues that have been fixed, but I still have one with
folders containing spaces. Here's a transcript of a connection
reconstructed from a packet capture:


* OK Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 IMAP4rev1 server version 6.5.7638.1
(<server_name>) ready.
g0 CAPABILITY
* CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 IDLE LOGIN-REFERRALS MAILBOX-REFERRALS
NAMESPACE LITERAL+ UIDPLUS CHILDREN
g0 OK CAPABILITY completed.
g1 LOGIN myname mypass
g1 OK LOGIN completed.
g2 LIST "." "Junk E-mail"
g2 OK LIST completed.
g3 SELECT Junk E-mail
g3 BAD Protocol Error: "Unexpected additional characters at the end of
command".
g4 LOGOUT
* BYE Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 IMAP4rev1 server version 6.5.7638.1
signing off.
g4 OK LOGOUT completed.

I had a patch for 2.0 to fix these unquoted strings issues, but form
what I recall developers wanted to rewrite that part or the code... If
it hasn't been done yet would you mind merging an updated patch in the
mean time? Shall I rewrite it for 2.1? (seems like half of it still
apply cleanly...)

Thanks
