Hello,

RFC3501 is not clear about the SEARCH response (at least to me).

It says:

   Responses:  REQUIRED untagged response: SEARCH

The FETCH response says:

   Responses:  untagged responses: FETCH

Fetch is talking about responseS and Search is talking about a response.

Can I conclude from the search response description that multiple untagged
search reponses are not valid? That's what I did until yesterday.

Today I don't know what to think about it. EIMS search responses contains
multiple untagged search responses (discovered that yesterday). They say
it's valid because the search response does not specify that search must
only return a single response. I think they have a point.

Is it possible to clarify the search response in the rfc3501 errata and
specificly mention if multiple untagged search responses are
valid/invalid?

Regards,

Marc Groot Koerkamp.
