So happy I found this discussion.
I spent a day on figuring out an issue with login into IMAP.
It turned out that the { character in my password was the problem. Grrr...
The strange thing that I could successfully configure my IMAP connection my
Outlook client. Only when I try to connect programmatically by using an
ImapClient component (I tried several), then it fails by throwing that BAD
invalid characters message.
So I wonder how I can make the login succeed WITHOUT changing my
password....
