Description Alexandre Rostovtsev (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-02-20 04:29:08 UTC
libetpan-0.53 fails to parse certain IMAP extensions correctly. As a result, claws-mail (which requires messages to be places in an IMAP queue folder before sending them) cannot send any mail if you have an IMAP mailbox. As in, no mail at all. Instead, you just get an error dialog: "Could not queue message for sending", and 

** IMAP error: parse error (very probably non-RFC compliance from the server)
** IMAP4 connection broken

in the network log file.

See the claws-mail bugzilla entry in the URL field for more details.

This bug has been fixed in the libetpan CVS, and has already been patched in Ubuntu.
