Package: gnubiff
Version: 2.2.13-3
Severity: important
In case of very large imap mailbox, imap server will answer a
very long line which size if greater than default maximum size
of 16384 (security/prevdos_line_length parameter in the expert
tab). In that case, an incorrect error message if displayed on
console in debug mode (Operation not permitted) which is
because of strerror(status) where status is meaningless in that
case (socket.cc, Socket::read).
A patch aimed to guide the user to the problem in case of very
large imap mailbox is provided (the message says to increase
security/prevdos_line_length).
