-- Please type your report below this line
I'm not an IMAP expert, but I had a problem opening a mail folder via
IMAP and looked into it. I think this problem was caused by a system
administrator deleting some messages that had viruses in them. This
seems to have caused Cyrus to respond with a FETCH syntax that mutt
isn't prepared to handle -- mutt fails to open the folder and then also
seems to get wedged. The short illustration below of an interaction
with the imap server will hopefully illustrate this problem. Messages
3274 and 3275 exhibit the problem; message 3276 seems okay.
To fix this problem, as it was preventing me from opening the folder in
mutt (which unfortunately was necessary to recover lost mail), I applied
the patch included below. I don't want to vouch too much for this patch
because my unfamiliarity with the code and IMAP makes be unsure that it
is the best approach, but it was sufficient to let me open my mail folder.
