#3233: Mutt hangs on opening IMAP mailbox

Component: IMAP | Version:
Keywords: imap,freeze |
--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------
When I try to open a IMAP folder, mutt freezes. It always display:[[BR]]
Selecting SAVED/2009...[[BR]]
The IMAP server is hosted at free.fr (a French ISP). Many others french
users told me by email that they have experienced similar problems.
Tech stuffs:
- I'm running the lastest mercurial version[[BR]]
- My debug attempt shows that the IMAP server send a strange
sequence. When parsing the return string, mutt is not able to detect that
the IMAP answer is finished. So mutt tries to read data on the socket. But
the server has nothing to send! So mutt hangs on.[[BR]]
After a moment, the server close the connexion and mutt displays[[BR]]
Connection to imap.free.fr closed[[BR]]
I join my muttdebug (-d2), the gdb stack when mutt hang and most important
a tcpdump of the imap exchange.
Best regards.
