The command worked fine in 4.0.3 (all code with the command stopped working in 4.0.4).. > Max Kalika [cced] and I spent a fair amount of time tracking down a problem like this we encountered while hacking on IMP. Look at this thread for a bit more information: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=imp&m=97681331109677&w=2 It seems to be tied in to whether or not you connect via a CNAME. For example, putting in 'localhost' fails for me if localhost is not in /etc/hosts (since it then defaults to the localhost.domainname CNAME in most dns entries). Max, have you had a chance to look at this at all? It's come and gone for me for over six months. Also, I have not been able to reproduce it in a non-Linux system (I copied Max's CVS tree of IMP verbatim to my OpenBSD machine, and it worked fine without this problem using my c-client/PHP setup, which were exactly the same versions as Max's). -- Anil Madhavapeddy, <avsm@horde.org>
