93953 - IMAP with Groupwise: Message-ID disliked when sending

Status: NEW

(MailNews Core :: Networking: IMAP, defect)

Description

[William Leumas]

When I send a message on an IMAP account using Groupwise, it gives me an alert
saying it has a problem with the Message-ID (does not like it).  Our Novell guy
says this is typical behaviour of Groupwise, in that it does not allow the
client to specify its own Message-ID.  However, groupwise does send the message,
but the mozilla mail client thinks it didn't, and asks me if I want to pull it
back up from my Sent mail, or I have to "cancel" it, even though it really did
send.  Perhaps just have an list somewhere in advanced options, where you can
pick and chose which 'optional' headers are sent along with the message.
Snooping the socket I see the groupwise side of the session says:

Reporter, what GW version are you using at your site?

Comment 3

[Andy Deckowitz]

I have a partial confirmation of this behavior, with Netscape 7.0 as the mail
client and GroupWise 6.5 beta 3 as the IMAP server.  I have another user that
was unable to reproduce the error on Netscape 7.0 (different machine), and I was
unable to reproduce the error myself on Mozilla 1.2 or 1.2.1.

Sorry for the second message, but this bug is probably a duplicate of #89575

I just try to test that one, but don't get the clue...

You tried to send the mail via IMAP? Or do you get the error on writing the sent
mail to some "Sent" folder on the IMAP server?

Or is it all about the smtp connection to the internet agent?
