Description Valentijn Sessink 2005-05-13 13:25:48 UTC 
Version details: Ubuntu Linux version
Distribution/Version: Ubuntu Linux

Use Evolution 2.2.1.1 with Courier IMAP v.3.0.8; set server type to IMAP4rev1. 

Try to save a message to the DRAFTS folder on the IMAP server. This results in
an "Unknown error", coming from
evolution-data-server/camel/providers/imap4/camel-imap4-folder.c

I tried to find the "UID APPEND" command in RFC2060, but after UID, the only
commands that are allowed seem to be COPY, FETCH, or STORE, or SEARCH. The only
program that sends a UID APPEND seems to be Evolution, as can be seen from
http://www.google.nl/search?q=%22UID+APPEND%22+imap

Now v1.29 on Evolution has set different logic when to send "UID APPEND", but
from what I can find, it's still wrong, the entire "UID APPEND" should go.

Changing Product to Evolution.
Comment 2 Not Zed 2005-08-05 07:30:45 UTC 
a misreading of the uidplus rfc (rfc2359).

its been fixed in 2.3 already, but i'll backport the patch to 2.2.x
