23497 - freezes while looking for folders on imap server

Reporter

Description

25 years ago

I've never been able to use mozilla with this imap server.
It seems to be confused by my folders. It creates files
for some, but not all. It wouldn't make a folder for my
2mb Sent folder so I moved it out of my personal imap
directory on the server. Then it seemed to have trouble
with two other files. I moved them out of the server's
imap directory but they still manage to show up in my
mozilla ImapMail directory even after I deleted ~/.mozilla
and started over. Mozilla gets to a point where its looking
for folders and then freezes.

adding david b to the cc list. David, can you tell from this log output what
type of IMAP server Dawn's using that's giving her this problem?
PREAUTH cannibal.mi.org IMAP4rev1 v10.234 server ready

looks like a UW server to me. Turning on Imap client protocol logging would be
helpful. I'll try to fill in the instructions for that later

it's something like
setenv NSPR_LOG_MODULES IMAP:5
setenv NSPR_LOG_FILE /tmp/imapio.txt

Mozilla works after removing the trailing slash from my .mailboxlist file
on the server.
