Package: vm
Version: 7.19-1
According to a strict reading of the IMAP RFC, all the lines sent to
an IMAP server, including lines inside a message sent in an "APPEND"
command, need to end in a CRLF. However, the VM vm-imap-save-message
function appears to send a message being saved directly from the
contents of an Emacs buffer, which might contain only newlines.
The symptom of this is that if you try to run
vm-save-message-to-imap-folder when connecting to certain strict IMAP
servers (for instance, one here identifying itself as Cyrus IMAP4
v2.1.16-IPv6) it will fail with "server said NO to APPEND data"; the
error from the server in my case is "NO Message contains bare
newlines". The following message on a Cyrus list describes why they
refuse to be more liberal in what they accept:
http://asg.web.cmu.edu/archive/message.php?mailbox=archive.info-cyrus&msg=5639
If it matters, I'm seeing this with xemacs21 21.4.15-7 on sarge.
Let me know if I can be of any other help in reproducing or fixing
this.
