CAPA is the POP3 extension command for finding out about non-standard
capabilities of POP servers. Eg:
Connected to peabody.ximian.com.
+OK Hello there.
CAPA
+OK Here's what I can do:
TOP
USER
LOGIN-DELAY 10
PIPELINING
UIDL
IMPLEMENTATION Courier Mail Server
.
Older POP servers don't implement it, but it shouldn't hurt anything.
The server just returns "-ERR" instead of "+OK" and Evolution assumes it
doesn't implement any extensions. There's no way to make it not send the
command.
