Hi, Im new to the list, so might be a FAQ allthough I havent found it anywhere: When I try to connect to dovecot/imap from snappermail (palm), I get a IMAP protocol error. The complaint is about: OK [PERMANENTFLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft ) \*)] Flags permitted. As you can see, theres an extra " )" after "Draft". Any clues on how to fix/bypass this? Regards, Nils Henrik Tvetene
I guess you're using Dovecot 0.99? I've just checked 1.0-stable and 1.0-test74 and they seem to be fine with both mbox and maildir :- . SELECT INBOX * FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft) * OK [PERMANENTFLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft \*)] Flags permitted. . SELECT "#maildir/test4" * FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft) * OK [PERMANENTFLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft \*)] Flags permitted.

You probably have ")" keyword defined in the mbox file.. This shouldn't/couldn't really happen normally. Delete Dovecot's index files and the ")" from X-IMAPbase header in the beginning of the mbox. That should fix it. I'll also make sure the next 1.0-test release will skip such broken keywords instead of sending them to clients. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

You're right. I have a ")" in my inbox. 1.0-stable seemed to handle it though, so going with that. Thanks for help.
