Thanks very much for this! We applied this patch this morning and Pine is now behaving itself. On the down-side, our quota scripts using Cyrus::IMAP::Admin have stopped working as they are not being sent MAILBOX-REFERRALS in the CAPABILITY string. This means they are ignoring the referral sent to them by the server when they issue a GETQUOTA. Reading RFC 2193 Section 3, paragraph 1 this is understandable: IMAP4 servers that support this extension MUST list the keyword MAILBOX-REFERRALS in their CAPABILITY response. No client action is needed to invoke the MAILBOX-REFERRALS capability in a server. I feel like we've picked at the thread of a jumper and it's slowly unravelling here! Regards, Dave.
