IDLE should not require selected state
--------------------------------------
Key: IMAP-245
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMAP-245
Project: JAMES Imap
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Protocol
Affects Versions: 0.2
Reporter: Wojtek Strzalka
Fix For: 0.2
The problem is that Outlook on one of the connections it opens to IMAP, tries
to do IDLE when no mailbox is selected. The problem is that this brilliant MS
product don't want to give up, and retries it sometimes 10 requests and
sometimes hundreds of them - maybe more. In thew best case it ends up with
extra 200kB of "IDLE <-> NO IDLE failed" communication, but sometimes it ends
up with Outlook hanged.
The RFC says IDLE is valid also for authenticated state, however behavior is
undefined....
