[bug-mailutils] IMAP problem?

[Stephen Bylo]

Hi All,

When I create a mailbox like this:

$ ./mb imap://ajit:address@hidden/xxxxxx
creating mailbox [imap://ajit:address@hidden/xxxxxx]
mailbox_open
mailbox_open error: Invalid argument

I get this trace below.  The mailbox is created ok!
Why do i get the error message "Invalid argument"??
The server is the Red Hat rpm (imap-2001a-18).

If you need the full trace i can send it.

BTW: If works fine with mbox.

Please help!
Steve
