Thank you Sam for the insightful reply. Now I understand why the imap protocol wants all requests to begin with some symbol (name-value) that can be incremented so that the responses can be paired easier with the
corresponding requests on the client side.

Using select() seems to make the solution much more complicated than it should. Some web servers simply fork(), read, buffer, process, write, and repeat. Wow, this method is cleaner but can be much more expensive.

OK, I will have to experiment and read further.

Thank you all.
